Overview
This book is the supplement to the story of the author’s life, his adventures and travels as a helicopter pilot in the US army during the time when it all began. Helicopter companies were born during the end of the Korean conflict; survived the building years between wars and became prominent during the Vietnam cluster-F. There has been a ton of material written about helicopters in Vietnam, but nothing has come out about those years in the fifties and sixties leading up to that Golden Age of helicopters. This book covers the other light and medium helicopter companies that shared the sky with the author and most of the aviation personnel activity involved in that history, during the early years.
