Many Die Vietnam War Footage

Vietnam War Combat Footage of air assault in Vietnam on April 11, 1971. I took this movie, M-16 one hand and 8mm camera in other. Dedicated to the 174th Sharks, Dolphins, 116th Hornets & other Aviation units who supported Grunts in Vietnam. Also dedicated to the 11 men that lost their lives that day.

Bird (Helo) sounds added, tried to be as accurate as possible. For you young ones, 8mm movie cameras didn't have sound.

Great video, I've been on a Vietnam kick the last couple months ever since I saw "Vietnam in HD" on the history channel. Sorry to hear you guys weren't allowed to strike strategic locations like the Norths air force base where they kept their migs at for example, instead having to draw them out to obliterate them in a dog fight. You guys kicked ass in every major conflict, but the North was still very strong and ended up destroying the south once you left. When they were promised support from US

@enacku A lot of my footage was used in the History Channel Vietnam in HD documentary. I sent them my 8mm footage and they upgraded it to 1080p HD. It really improved the video quality and I was glad many buddies got to see themselves on TV. Thanks, Wolfie

This footage must seem another lifetime ago, WolifeRed1.

Doesn't life just fly by? I'm nearly 30 and I already notice it.

This is a very superficial & insignificant comment compared to most on here, but the only flying Bell UHIH chopper in the UK is kept about 10 miles from me here. It's an incredible machine, & the sound is unique. I can only imagine how US soldiers, who were injured, must have felt when they heard the distant sound of a Huey coming to rescue them... that's all I wanted to say... great video Wolfie

Here it is ..all these years later ....and the only people who truly understand are those who fought and those who loved them.......
