Gunship Shot Down337 viewsPat Edwards Photo
Lt Jim Puhala, WO Bob Kelly, CC Davey Armstrong, and DG Pee Pie Pierce (Med Evaced to Japan)
were in a Huey Gunship that was shot down 8 November 1967 North of Phan Thiet.
From Bob Kelly: "After shoot down - we had just reached a creek bed 50 feet away and took cover a short time before our huey blew up as shown in this picture. I was crouching and Jim as standing. The concussion from the blast knocked us both to the ground. There were three Purple Hearts awarded.

Prime Living Quarters337 viewsJim Puhala Photo
Phan Thiet
The gun platoon pilots lived in a GM Medium tent – pretty roomy quarters for a small number of occupants. Before I joined the platoon, somebody constructed this hootch. At the time this picture was taken it was occupied by 2 short-timer WO’s. Later, Platoon Leader CPT Jack Watkins moved in. When he left, I moved in.

Local Kids337 viewsJim Puhala Photo
Helicopters, at least the guns, were kid magnets.
This photo was taken at Song Mau. We spent a lot of time there - waiting. We’d put out a recon patrol in the morning. They’d recon for a while; if they didn’t find anything, we’d pick them up and put them someplace else. If they did find something, we’d do a CA.
