Modern Day A Shau

From Bob Witt. "Doc Mcbride, Mike Sprayberry's medic at LZ Tiger, took these pictures on his return trip to Vietnam. He returned the A Shau to look for his unit's MIA's lost at Tiger. Doc fortunately survived serious wounds received on the road below Tiger on April 25, 1968. Mike Sprayberry received the MOH for going out that night to rescue Doc & the rest of his patrol. Their unit was on board for the first Combat Assault's into LZ Tiger."

1969

I don't remember their names (can anyone help?), but I believe these are the two pilots, Yellow One, who received the Silver Star for going into a hot LZ five or more times. They had a least three ships shot up, but would not let any of the other pilots go in. They just traded ships.
