Were you a Warrior,...or a T Bird?
Have you read *Into Laos By Keith William Nolan,....LAM SON 719/ Operation Dewey Canyon II....1971
The bravery of the Helicopter crews,.....Hell,...the bravery of all American forces applied to that fiasco is hallmark!

Picture a John McCain instead of an LBJ hosting the Joint Chiefs November 1965.

I was a Warrior, (Warrior 29) in the 2d flight platoon. I haven't read Into Laos. The only history book I've read on Vietnam is We Were Soldiers-. I never flew into Laos, I've known a few guys who have. Closest I came was the invasion of Cambodia in May, 1970.
