There was some vision for the helicopter - if they only knew where it would go.

Did you see the picture of Sikorsky setting a helicopter endurance record in Saturday’s thread (5/7)? When I saw that on the microfilm I thought of a couple scenes in “We Were Soldiers.” Especially the one at the climax of the battle where the helicopter is hovering over the ARVN rear area hosing them down with the mini-gun. Yeah, there might be a few military applications for this technology.

Maybe you can help me with #5 and #7 in the Twenty News Questions. I’m stuck on those two but I think I will go with “mobile field kitchen,” and “rocket ship,” respectively.
