Comments: | Col Pryce of A Troop passed away a fw months back. I sent his wife, Jo< a sympathy card from the Bullwhip Squadron. Today I received a card from Jo. She was thanking all of us for our condolences. I make a mug for the spouses of Charlie Troop when one of us rides on to Fiddlerss Green. It has a picture of the Man, a picture of him with his spouse and the three types of helicopters that were used while he was in County. A statement at the top saying "Always Honored and Never Forgotten" and then the Troop listed below that. I would be happy yo do that for any of the troops if I could have someone from each troop get a Then and a Now photo, the year served and the wife's name and an address. I do this auctioning off items at the Bullwhip Reunions. I do not charge anything. So if you want to particiapate either find someone to collect the info and pictures or send me the info and pics at pcbnamin@verizon.net. |

Comments: | Was Saber 21 69-70..replaced 'ol chesson at Quan loi...
also flew the "charlie model" gunship as a 'scout' on occasion...now THAT was a thrill...anyone remember that? My God, what a fight that was, with all the ground attacks and rocket attacks...who's idea was it to build hootches in the rubber trees anyway?...
Lots of memories and great fellows there. I just turned 66 the other day but it still seems like yesterday to me....I went to Southern Rhodesia and served in their military as a Lt. with the 'Broken Eagles', after I got out of the Army in '72, to fly the Alouette III, and ended up with the Selous Scouts... they never lost a fight by the way... |

Comments: | During this past Bullwhip Squadron Reunion $200.00 was raised to purchase two bricks to be placed at the Motts Museum. I am looking for suggestions as to what should go on them. Two things; 1. Only 14 spaces per line with 3 lines max.
2. One is for our Fallen Brothers and one is for the Bullwhip Squadron.
