ON THE WALL Panel 17W Line 110

On 23 Oct 1969 B Company, 158th Aviation Battalion, was tasked with conducting a combat assault with troops from A Company, 2/506th Infantry, into a tight landing zone. On the third lift a UH-1H (tail number 68-16274) landed, discharged its troops, and lifted off. The Huey's skid caught on a stump, causing the aircraft to roll right and crash. While the crewmen survived essentially uninjured, six men from A Company, 2/506th Infantry, were killed by flying fragments of the Huey's main rotor blades:

Gone, but not forgotten in our hearts. May the sacrifices of our US troops in Vietnam never be thought of as trivial. As one Vietnamese man told me. "The US had the finest army in the world". He was so grateful for what they did for his people.
