We'd be grateful if you could circulate this information to your unit collegues, indicating that we'd like to hear from anyone with photographs - logbook entries - relating to this particular machine. Thank you. Mark Clayton Director Tauranga Museum New Zealand www.museum.tauranga.govt.nz

Comment: Was a doorgunner on Gladiator 552, was one of those assigned to permanent FOB. Also one of the first to fly the night mission with the starlight, mini gun and 50 on the right side. Is that a Night hawk ? Served with the 57th from August 70 until march 71. Started out in An Khe then moved to Pleiku.

Comment: I was in 3 diffrent units from 9/71 to 9/72, the 57th being my last. My mos 67n20 prohibited me from flying until March of 72 when I was allowed to volunteer for door gunner duty. From March to June I managed to aquire 233 hours flying. I recently found my health and flight records from the military which I thought had been lost. My 214 does not record any of this and I have been told that a fire in the national records department negated ever getting any evidence of this but I have it now. Anyway looking for old friends who may still remember me.
