Hi everyone! My dad is Dennis Gottschalk, and I was hoping anyone that remembers him or has any info, pictures or memories of him....I would love to get a hold of anything you got! It would be a great surprise for him! He collects memorabilia, mostly of the helicopters he worked on. Thank you also for all that you guys did and sacrificed for us! Take care!

Barry Alexander was a very, very close friend. Our parents were at Clemson before and after WWII. I grew up going to Clemson football games with Barry. He was a year older and I looked up to him. He was the big brother I didn't have naturally. Thanks go out to Tom Gates and Whiz Broome for being Barry's friends and connecting me with Barry's last days. It has been a blessing to me and Barry's family as well. God Bless you all for your service, your commitment and you faithfulness. Yet, the cause is great and will not be forgotten.

Great website. I know your members are proud of who they served with and proud of this website. Thanks for keeping the memory alive. I was a gunner on a UH-1 with the 229th AHB in 1966-1967. Welcome home to all my Vietnam brothers.
