In Loving Memory of my Uncle Dave You are forever in my thoughts. I only wish I had gotten the chance to know you. For Always,
Your niece, Beth A Nazeck |
Although I grieved over your loss a number of years after you passed, I grew to be a much stronger person over the years. One never knows what a loss like this can do to a person. I routinely thank all who have served or continue to serve this great nation and pray regularly for them, wishing them a safe return to their families.

UH-1C tail number 66-00518 was the trailing aircraft during the insertion.Unfortunately, the training exercise became all too real when 518 was shot down 22 miles southwest of Nha Trang, killing its four-man crew:
