On my budget, all I'll ever be able to afford is a CH-45.

But I'll arm it with a 12-gauge.*

Makes the 11-gauge look like a pop-gun.

That's a Shithook.

And we called them that in VN because that's all they ever brought us.

The good stuff...Mermite cans full of hot food, beer pallets, medics, ammo, etc, came on the Hueys.

All the Shithooks brought were sandbags (that we had to fill), half-culverts for hooches, everything associated with us working our butts off and MORE cases of C-rats.

And to this day, I still don't see how they fly.

“...that’s a CH-46.”

Holy crap, your right - how embarrassing (my lame defense is that it’s been a few decades - but don’t tell anyone...LOL)
