I ask my friends to remember another crew from the 335th AHC who were killed May 5, 1968.

CW-2 Bobby Ray Williams, WO-1 Richard G. Lewis, SP5 Glenn T. Fey, and PFC Jerome E. Jacobs were killed when their UH-1B gunship was hit with a B-40 rocket up near Bong Song. They were low level in a heavy and were unable to jettison the rocket pods before they hit the ground.

I usually flew the aircraft and would have been Aircraft Commander, but for some unknown reason was switched to a different aircraft and mission the night before.

Few days go by that I don't think of these guys, forever heroes in my mind.

Glenn was my cousin and my older brother's best friend. David Christman named his only son after Glenn. We think of him often, we're proud of him and we truly miss him. Thank you for this tribute to him and his crew.

A Note from The Virtual Wall

UH-1B tail number 62-02056 was shot down in the vicinity of An Bao, 12 kilometers north of Phu My City, while assisting elements of the 173rd Airborne Brigade involved in a desperate fight with three VC battalions. The memorial pages for the men engaged in the ground action - First Sergeant Malcolm Dulac for instance - contain details of the fighting.
