We ar searching for Mr. Gene think he was Warrent Officer or some rank who done survelience and sometimes flew the Brass around.
He was two tours Nam, shot inthe leg once and escaped. He was shot down second time near Bong Son late spring or early summer 1968.
His second tour to Vietnam he flew Chinooks.
He has three grandchildren Amy 13, Jackie 12, and my youngest "THe General" Zane Wood age 4.
He is the only grandfather they will possibly ever know. My mother and father are both dead.
THanks for any kind of help!
GOD bless the USA!
