I really don't understand why the death and destruction aren't in your videos. That was the war I was in there was no glory. I read comments from guys that made the military their lives not from the men like me who got F cked. Take your metals and glory you know where to put them.
The sound of a Huey is rarely heard today, but when one comes by I am whisked back 55 years to VN. The thud, thud, thud of a Huey is more the soundtrack of the war to me than the music.
I spent 31.5 months in Vietnam and started with the Huey but went to the little birds and was shot down 2 times but came back only because of the design of the bird and I guess God had a different direction in life for me. Even flew front seat in Cobra but they liked to fly to high for me. Flying around at treetop height ruined it for me. I use to tell them i got a nose bleed above 1000 feet and felt better the lower they would allow us.
My dad was a 101st airborne, big red one from 63 to 68. Many jumps and ground fighting Sargent. 3 up 1 down stripes plus many medals. Miss him and everyone Would like to add he joined navy first as a cb. Then transfer to army. Ait all over again. Then to Minnesota at a Niki site base then transfer to Fort Benning then Panama then back to the conflict war
I flew with Casper 173rd ABN brigade 1971 Door gunner. The army will never produce another group of helicopter pilots like they did for the Vietnam war. Those guys were amazing and determined to do their job no matter what. I salute all of them.
My brother was in the Australian Regular Army serving along side the American infantry in Vietnam. He would always write and tell me how fantastic the American door gunners were, keeping the enemy at bay while he and his men landed or got back on . He was unfortunately shot and killed in Phuoc Thuy Province April 1971 and passed away just as the men put him on the Huey. He told me what a great bunch of American troops he made friends with talking about the U.S and Australia.
I'm not American but I was a teenager here in the UK when the Vietnam war was going on. A lot of us thought we'd be😅 conscripted. I've always dreamed of having a flight in a Huey. It's my favourite aircraft after the Spitfire. Respect to you who served in Vietnam.
I just wanted to give my admiration and respect to all these Huey pilots and door gunners..all the lives that they must have saved,and just the bravery that they displayed often under the most dangerous conditions..you will never be forgotten,thankyou for your outstanding service from Australia!.
I imagine in the Vietnam War, young pilots, in their early 20s, crossing the dense forest, flying these steel birds, receiving artillery and still landing in clearings to rescue their war brothers in the middle of the fiery hell. Courage, skill and a little luck why not. These soldiers never got the respect they deserved, to all Vietnam veterans: I SALUTE YOU!
this war was one of the most horrifying abominations america ever took part in. i wish our rose tinted glasses could see through the 'war is an adventure' lie.
im ashamed that my country is proud of what we did to vietnam

American heroes. I was a tad too young to join you, but you were in my prayers.

¡Qué hermoso metraje de película! película! 🎞️ 🎥
Spent 30. Love the UH-1x. What an experience
One of the most truly universal and iconic helicopters ever built.
Q buena musica
Nice I love that video
You have not lived until you have flown in a Huey, been there, done that
Crazy pilots will scare the heck out of you flying low and turning a Huey upside down but then land without a bump ) thanks Kenney 🙂
I did my thesis about Dust Off in Vietnam War… Very proud of you!!!
My grandpa was 101st airborne and just told me about these helicopters

The only war with a soundtrack
So sad to see Hueys pushed outboard into the ocean. It’s like: “thanks for your service, we don’t need you anymore, splash!”… damn…
My brother Ralph kept the huey flying at Camp Holloway died at Holloway 7 February 1965
They got news, your news… Mighty God bless and keep you by his will and yaw
What a crap show that was……..
Edit: The war, not the video…..
I served with the First Air Cavalry in Nam, 1967-1968. Did over 200 combat air assaults on a Huey.
My brother was in the Australian Regular Army serving along side the American infantry in Vietnam. He would always write and tell me how fantastic the American door gunners were, keeping the enemy at bay while he and his men landed or got back on . He was unfortunately shot and killed in Phuoc Thuy Province April 1971 and passed away just as the men put him on the Huey. He told me what a great bunch of American troops he made friends with talking about the U.S and Australia.
The sexy sound of the Huey replace by some dumb music
