    AH-1G 67-15567, The Henchman II, D Troop, 3rd Squadron, 4th Cav. Reg., 25th Inf. Div., ICM 32nd Scale

    The Bronze Star was given to me for meritorious achievement not valor or else it would have a V devise. The First Sargent came into our hooch and just handed it too me. I also flew as a door gunner on Hueys and test flights in Cobras. I do have two combat missions in a Cobra and got to return...

    Just the 25th Inf. Div. patch on the left shoulder during my first and second tour. After moving to Kai Khe, spring of 1971, is when we were changed to being F Troop, 4th Cav. Regiment, 1st Aviation Brigade during my third tour. The 25th Div. patch was moved to the right shoulder and the 1st...

    Batman

    From Darkstar to the Dark Knight. The girl that cuts our hair is a big fan of Batman. One of her friends gave her this for Christmas and was way too difficult for her to build. So I offered to build it for her. It's all photo etch. Don't know the scale. It's sold by Hobby Lobby.Gary S.

    AH-1G 67-15567, The Henchman II, D Troop, 3rd Squadron, 4th Cav. Reg., 25th Inf. Div., ICM 32nd Scale

    Just a small correction in your title. When we received 567 after 827 was shot down, our unit was D Troop, 3rd Squradron, 4th Cav. Regiment, 25th Infantry Division. Then when the 25th left, our units name was changed to F Troop, 4th Cav. and we were told that we were then attached to the 1st...

    Nest of Vietnamese Cobra Hatchlings for Special Hobby 72nd Scale AH-1G x4 Build

    Testors OD is a good match. The ships with the wild eye are from the 25th Aviation. They were across the runway from us at Cu Chi. Gary S.

    Scratch 1/48th scale Topgun Darkstar

    Ta da!! The one and only, as far as I know, Darkstar is done. The canopy doesn't fit as well as a kit one would though. Gary S.

    You just had to burr down on it. Gary S.

    I built two of their Connie's. Decent kits. The first was the 1049 and later the 749. Both with Eastern Airlines markings. Gary S.
