My uncle sp4 /Sgt.David Lynn Willett served in the 2/327 67-68. Carried the M60 most days. Stories he told me one had to do with the BN CMD had a brief case fall out of chopper had to go look for it. Also was another about him riding on the skid of a chopper and someone got nervous and rushed to unload from chopper knocking my uncle off skid and to the ground 25ft up got wind knocked out of him no serious injury from that. Anyone that knew him please contact me.

I was in Nam aug 70 aug 71, E company 2/327 mortars. Nick name Buddha. while in Nam, I got a Huey tail rotor chain. I have worn it for over 34 years. the only times it has come off my wrist was if it needed some TLC. been through several operations. the docs said take it off. I say it doesnt come off. my shrink at the VA says its my guilt from Nam. maybe it is but now it is in bad shape. I have been at the flightline at Fort Campbell during the last reunion and asked all the mechanics it they have a piece of chain. none of the crews had one. I have contacted many other places but none had any. I am asking if my brothers know of anyone who may have a piece of of rotor chain. I need about 8 inches. it would mean a lot to me and my guilt to find the chain. if anyone has a piece call my home 973 839 2208 Thanks Welcome home
