Frank Santen in Vietnam War

"CH-34 departing Hill 190. That is the Namo River in background. I flew in these more than any other type helicopter. Pilot is using gravity to get this "ground lover" in the air. And, flying off a carrier, 90 miles out to sea in one of these. People wonder why I have grey hair!" " In 1969, flying "off" the LPD Duluth, one of the landing gear hit the rail of the catwalk. We "bounced off" and went on our merry way to the Batangan Peninsula. I have a model of one of these on my desk. Once, on a "milk run", the pilots let us shoot sharks. There were hundreds, what a show!"
