I need to get out my A-1 clone and shoot it. Oh, and build something with the other A-1 upper I have.
Thanks OP, you just cost me money. |

Unusual, and very cool. I think that's a UH-1A, and it's cargo doors have been removed. I also think those troops are Montagnard. This photo was probably taken very early in the war. ETA and that's quite the antenna a radioman is packing. |

Did most of the small arms get De-milled or left behind?
That’s a shame. |

Great photos, thanks. Our company had a reunion a few years ago and the organizers put together a few videos of the guys photos. Good music from the era. While they are lengthy once you see the photos they just loop, so maybe 20 minutes each.
