| Comments: | Did you name your helicopter in Vietnam? I'm collecting Army helicopter names for VOL 2 of "U.S. Army Helicopter Names In Vietnam" to be published in 2015. Search your in-country photo/slide collections for personalized copter nose art & names. Search your memory & memoirs or query a buddy for his. Thank you gentlemen.

| Comments: | I joined "A" troop, 1st of the 9th Cav. I was in the scouts and flew in a OH-13S Sioux. I used to carry an M-60 on my lap. I joined the unit in Aug. 1965 in Ft. Benning, GA to March of 1966 in Viet Nam. I went over with the unit on the U.S.S. Darby and landed in Sept. 1965. I'm just curious as to how many of us are left. |

| Comments: | Iwas very saddened to read of the passing of Larry Wright. We were in different Companies of 1/9 but he was easy to relate to and you couldn't help but like him. He was a tireless worker for the Bull Whip Society and will be missed. My condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace. |
