I was in a Chinook company on Ft Wainwright in 75, almost all of the pilots I flew with were Vietnam vets. Some of those guys could fly that big Bird to the absolute limits, I learned early on to hang on tight when one would ask the new copilot if they had ever seen one do some maneuver. Had a lot of fun with those guys. The Huey company was on Ft Richardson, the rest of the battalion was on Wainwright.
