Battalion This page
is in honor of the many sacrifices the men of the Diamondheads and Little
Bears made. Many made the ultimate sacrifice. For those this page is my way
of saying thank you, for a job well done. For everyone else and the many
heroic deeds they did, this is my way of giving to those who gave so much
for me. Maybe it will serve as a gathering place for remembrances that in
some way will help the healing process.

227th
Company A, Assault Helicopter Battalion,
1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile)
A/227 was a helicopter "slick" company - troop carrying
helicopters were called "slicks" because they had little armament
which differentiated them from armed helicopters or "guns". Each
unit had their own callsign for identification over the radio. The callsign
for A/227 was "Chickenman". This callsign would identify
individuals or aircraft as belonging to A/227. The callsign was a source of
pride and honor - and humor if you remember the radio serial broadcast in
1968 about the adventures of Benton Harbor AKA Chickenman - the great white
winged warrior.

The 238th
Aerial Weapons Company served in Viet Nam as part of the 1st Aviation
Brigade. During most of that time, it was stationed at Phu Hiep, near the
air base at Tuy Hoa or on the airbase. The unit was an all gunship company
and was normally assigned as general support for II Corps. During early
1971, the unit was moved to Dong Ha, near the DMZ, and took part in the Lam
Son 719 operations in Laos. The four "flashes" around the outside
of the patch indicate the areas the unit operated in. II Corps, our normal
operations area, Cambodia, during early 1970 when U.S. units went into
Cambodia near Plieku, I Corps during the lead up to Lam Son 719, and Laos
during that operation. All of those operations were flown in the
"Bravo" and "Charlie" model Huey gunship. In mid 1971,
the unit converted to the AH1G Cobra, and flew that aircraft until it was
withdrawn.
