This is a really cool "video", it is all stills but great shots of weapons/troops/helicopters. At 5:40 there is a great shot of a customized CAR (or something like it), I've never seen. Enjoy.

Looks to me like an AK gripstock stuck on a GAU-5

Loved it. Photos really depicted the way it was. If there are any Airborne folks out there looking for bobtail 1911 grips with jump wings send me a note.

Minus the 'moderator'. I always wondered if anyone took it off.

Very cool.

My high school Aerospace teacher flew armed Hueys and transitioned to Cobras not long after they came into Vietnam. Every year, he'd show each new class a slide show of his tour.
