- "A door gunner is a crewman tasked with firing and maintaining manually directed armament aboard a military helicopter. The actual role will vary depending on the task given on a particular mission. For certain aircraft a door gunner would use a fully automatic Gatling gun placement. On many larger aircraft such as military planes a turret is used along with heavy cannons."

"The Bell UH-1 Iroquois (nicknamed "Huey") is a utility military helicopter designed and produced by the American aerospace company Bell Helicopter. It is the first member of the prolific Huey family, as well as the first turbine-powered helicopter in service with the United States military."

Some hueys did get M134 miniguns but in small number they were mainly issued to the Air Force green hornets in Vietnam. My old man used to fly with em. The main job for the green hornets where flying behind enemy lines to pick and drop soldiers off. Multiple times they would land on hot LZs to extract special op teams.
Thanks for the info, I got the idea of this video from this one

My moms uncle who recently passed away was a Huey gunner in Vietnam but he was shot 8 times will on a gunner mission in 68’
RIP to a true badass and legend💥💥
There was a B17 tail gunner who was shot 11 times while his tail was disconnected from the bomber, he used the gun to propel the plane forward and he glided down, he broke his skull and was saved by a prisoner in a concentration camp who was a doctor. He died after the war.

Love how its just one of THE greatest metal songs made by THE greatest metal band ever and literal history facts about vietnam and what soldiers went through
My grandfather was a master aviator & Army Pilot instructor, and became General Westmoreland's Huey taxi pilot in Vietnam.
After Senator McCain's plane crash and prior to Westmoreland going mainland, the Army sent three full-bird Colonels to interview each and every pilot on base, which were all under my grandfather's command as a Lt Colonel at the time. Each and every one of them said he was "the best pilot this side of the Pacific." He, along with his buddy Jack, were chosen to fly Westmoreland around Vietnam, and when Westmoreland charted a flight path from A to B over an area where he had been shot at or his men had been shot down over, my grandfather would simply say, to the United State's most senior Army commander, "No," then would suggest a new route, and told him "You can fly that way if you find a better pilot." He gained Westmoreland's respect, and they would become buddies over time. Westmoreland sent my grandfather a handwritten letter when my uncle passed away in 1974.
My grandfather passed away two months ago at the ripe old age of 93, having lived a thrilling and fulfilling life, leaving behind 22 grandchildren and dozens of great-grandchildren. I miss him very dearly.
Such a based grandfather
Your grandfather was a unit of a man, my dude!
My grandfather likely knew your grandfather as he was a Command Sgt Major with an office next to General Westmoreland in Vietnam. Small world.
Ain't gotta worry about charlie in the trees if there aren't any trees standing
My uncle turned 18 on the way to Vietnam in a troop carrier. He was a door gunner and served 3 Tours
That is nuts. My dad was a gunner (M60, on a bungee cord whenever he could get away with it), but he only stayed for 20 months. Props to your uncle.
I'm sitting here on my porch, smoking a cigarette, and wondering how many young soldiers smoked their last Marlboro in that fucking jungle

*Welcome to Estalia gentlemen*
Thank you so much. I feel like I have successfully fulfilled my fantasy as a child, being a gunner in Nam! Hell now I can go and claim VA benefits. As a retired 25 year old man and a old Vietnam vet I’m proud of myself. Lol
~ All jokes aside: RIP to the men that fell runnin through the jungle.
I check out these videos to see what my Dad experienced during his time in Vietnam. I know that sounds weird af but I can't imagine being thrown in a jungle at 19 carrying an M16. He never speaks of his time there and now that I'm older I can understand why.
After watching Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Deer Hunter, and a few others… I honestly feel like things couldn’t have possibly gotten worse for our boys over there…
My granddad flew BUFFs during ‘Nam, the big Arc Lights missions. Evidently, he was lucky enough that the MiG’s and SAM’s never made it past the Phantoms or Wild Weasels, and he had a very uneventful war. He said it was usually easier than training missions Stateside.
Keep in mind helicopter gunners had one of the highest fatality rates
Still the coolest job in the war
My old man’s friend Dennis was a dust off pilot in Vietnam, he doesn’t talk a whole lot about it.
I was a GiB (Guy in Back) on a Dust off for a year. Dust Off Pilots=the Best of The Best!
The funny thing is that some mounted machine guns were M2 brownings or a M60 but the trigger is and M2 browning trigger mechanism
Yes, and (more recently) Panasonic bought Leica lenses for their digital still cameras. For some reason I always found that fascinating, a Japanese company buying a German product.

Literally in NAM the door gunners were the most dangerous job
And the coolest
I think its way better than checking tunnel rats with only a 1911. Just saying
Especially the king bee door gunners support MAC V SOG in Laos and Cambodia.
But man, being a gunner, especially on "Puff the Magic Dragon", or commonly called as the AC-47 "Spooky", sure must have been an adrenaline fuelled thrill ride
Door gunners had a life expectancy of 2 weeks
One Praise, One Critique
The wind up before firing belies that you used audio from a rotary gun of some sort, possibly being a GAU17 autogun so honestly thats not even too big an issue. I just foresee people in the comments wondering about why an m60's audio wasn't used.
You did a great job with the sound. The atmosphere behind the music is as important in these memes as the music itself. Don't be afraid to let the latter be taken over by the former.
Thanks for the praise and for the critique, constructive criticism is always important to help improve the content
In LZ preparation missions, miniguns were more commonly used, rather than the famous M60, because of the destructive power and rate of fire, that's why I didn't used the sound effect of a M60, and unfortunately I couldn't find an image of a door gunner with a minigun in good quality so I had to use this one with a M60
@@Bill-454 thats exactly what I figured, and like I said it honestly isn't even that big of an issue because, as you said, UH-1s used rotary guns anyways and all the popular images are of M60s

My Pawpaw was a Vietnam vet. Actually, his flag and cap are my profile picture. He was a Huey door gunner from august of 68’ through November of 69’ when he was medically discharged. He said they crash twice and were shot down once. At the end of his service, he was the only one from his original squad left. On their last mission there were two left, him and another guy. They were shot down, and the other guy from the original squad and co pilot died. Him and the 7 others in the chopper survived. Only the right door gunner and what I’m assuming was the co pilot (right side) died because the helicopter crash more on the right side. He was discharged with what I think was a fractured leg or something. R.I.P PawPaw. March,1944- November,2010
Six barrels of hell!
Holy fuck i love this. This is going on my Vietnam playlist.
Don’t know much about it, but my grandpa fought, carrying a machine gun on him with m1911. When getting into combat one day him and his squad were encircled with no cover other than a few logs and trees in the jungle, and he told me how he was hiding under a log, with bullets just grazing him, when an jet swoops down and about 50 feet away from him starts lighting up the place. And 7 minutes later Huey’s arrived to rescue him, and his squad

Having been sat next to a Blackhawk door gunner when he let rip with his M134 (to test fire it - nothing that interesting happened) - nothing prepares you for just how LOUD it is, even with double ear protection.
