- Via The Jimmy Graham Foundation: A glimpse of a story that’s been 52 years in the making. It was an honor to hear Vietnam Veteran Steve Crawford share his stories from the past, and reconnect this Crew Chief with a flight in our Huey that shared the skies during his time with the 170th Assault Helicopter Company (AHC). Thank you to Steve for a memorable flight in the bird and to all of our veterans for their sacrifice and courage to serve.

Wow! I've studied the Vietnam War for over forty years. This is, perhaps the most humble man I've seen interviewed who fought that conflict. There's never been a more deserving person to be gifted with being allowed to relive his past! We're glad you made it home, Steve. Sorry you lost your friends.
God Bless you Steve Crawford. Thank you for your Service. 💙
yep
Welcome home brother, the Huey was a good bird that in the hands of our pilots got us out of a few jams. 9th Inf Div 5/60 Bravo Co. 1967
Thank you Steve. You and all the crews of the Hueys were the best. No matter what you would come in for us. You guys were our angels from above. ‘68-70 grunt
My father was a naval aviator in the Korean and Vietnam wars.. glad to see this bringing happiness to a Vietnam war veteran
Thank you Sir! For taking care of our nation.Taking care of us in that time frame. I could not even IMAGINE what it was like to be back in a Huey Helicopter . Thinking back at what you actually did during that conflict. YOU, AND ALL THE OTHERS. ARE MY HERO'S! As well as all of our soldiers. Thank you! Thank you!
Miss you dad. Thank you to all our Vietnam Vets. ❤️🇺🇸✌️
God bless you Steve and above all THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.
También volé en un UH-1H, soy un ex Famet de la unidad de helicópteros IV, Sevilla. 1975 a 1977. España. Entiendo la emoción de este veterano al volar en el Huey, es la misma que yo sentiría también.
I say this to every veteran of every country... When your country called, you came and did what was asked of you. For that alone, you are among the most honorable on this earth. I salute you.
I flew with the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation for a few yrs and had the opportunity to share these Veterans experience as they flew the Huey again after so many yrs. Truly humbling experience to see men I know to be tough as nails with tears in there eyes.
I love the humility of this man.Cheers from the UK 🇬🇧🇺🇸

I already can hear Fortunate Son in the background, then he is yelling... "Get some! Get some! yah!!!!
A mARINE A FATHER TO BROTHER THE War a team
Missed the opportunity to have Fortunate Son playing in the background
Sorry, respect this guy, just found this funny, sure it was just a slip of the tongue but he said "first time I've seen one in 52 years and first time I've been in one in 51 years." So apparently the last time he was in it he had his eyes closed :p
Maybe he was severely injured and unconscious during his last flight. Did you ever think of that?
Muy bien
HOOAH!!!
super opendoor flight
Me at VC on the ground holding RPG : *GO HOME GI*

What was the reason for all the deaths during the Vietnam War?
as a vietnam veteran i can tell you, i didn’t know it at the time of course. it was to control the world drug trade by the cia. at the time opium was coming out of the golden triangle, remember air america? also drugs got sent home in the body bags of dead americans.
We got second
thank god he's wearing a mask in the open doors of the huey while flying, all that air circulation could be dangerous so he's gotta wear a peice of cloth to save his life! truly heartwarming
Blast in China 😍😘👍👌
no more Huey's for me!
Sadly those birds are almost impossible to fly maintain ? Fuel. Parts. …
These were poored the sea by Vietkong.
And u bought into the mask thing in a moving prop.

I'm a proud Vietnam/Draft resistor. You do nothing but give me "ammunition" when I argue with all the assholes that support Vietnam. You know what we used to say when I was a kid..."If you had a brain, you'd be dangerous". Wait a minute....you're already dangerous. Take you meds, keep in contact with your VA....and don't do illegal drugs. :-))
well i’d have to say low leveling over a rice patty skids hitting the rice stalks at 120 knots listening to rock and roll isn’t bad either!😂 i’ve done that many times many years ago
US soldiers were throwing civilians out of helicopters.These murderers should be up in court on charges
never happened, that started when one group took prisoners up to a ten foot hover they would ask questions and if they didn’t and were they were thrown out that ten feet 😂you can say oh that’s so cruel well getting blown up by a booby trap isn’t much fun either. so before anyone says anything screw all you bleeding heart lefties 😂

When you realise the pilot is Viet cong lol
Very criminal, Vietnam
?
The dizzy match beautifully exercise because lawyer proximally memorise atop a mean footnote. wacky, lonely cucumber
Hero 😂 criminal😑
This is false, fortunate son didn’t play when he lifted off
Vietnam veterans gone "Hollywood". Obviously he didn't get enough of the "Vietnam" experience the first time. And the reality is he didn't belong there...or have a right to be there in the first place. So many of these veterans are jokes.
This is a really off the wall comment. Please Explain yourself. How did he not "belong there"? By your comments it would seem that you are the joke.
@@cepaasch Nothing off the wall about it. If you need Vietnam explained to you, then it's a mute point.

@@JayRacer Thanks.
Huh
