Warrant Officer/Pilot, Call sign "Centaur 26" D Troop, 3rd Squadron, 4th Cavalry, 25th Infantry Division. Came over on the ship from Hawaii, arrived early March 1966 at Cu Chi. Flew OH-23 for 4 or 5 weeks, then UH-1C Gunship till April 1967.
Wounded three times, shot down twice. Discharged from the Army in November 1968
Flew in Alaska, British Columbia and Yukon Territory [was a game warden there], New Zealand, all the rocky mountain states and California where I retired in 1998 from the Los Angeles Fire Department as a fire and rescue pilot with just over 20,000 flying hours.
Now live at 63 Chestnut Drive, Alpine Lake, Terra Alta, West Virginia 26764. My Email address wolfpointfarm at msn.com Would like to hear from anybody that was there with us during that time. I only recently started talking about the war comfortably and am only in contact with three of my old comrades in arms; Captain Frank Delvy [Colonel retired], Major Robinson, recently lost contact with him, and my old co-pilot, W.O. Frank Hamel, who I went thru Hell together with a couple of times. We just re-established contact after losing it for about 20 years. Get more from the Web. Bob
