Our Members
What started as sharing emails between amongst some old friends, transitioned into a blog and grew into a website to broaden the sharing of stories and photos. Today, our site aims to preserve the history of U.S. Air Force helicopters and the people who flew and maintained them. We thank and honor our members, and welcome their participation. We would like to continue our invitation to join and encourage everyone to participate.
A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
