You are not forgotten.

Four men of the 116th Aviation Company (later the 116th Assault Helicopter Company) died when their UH-1B (tail number 64-13951) was shot down while conducting Close Air Support for ground troops. The pilot radioed his wingman that he was going in. The Huey appeared to be in a normal autorotation but exploded on impact with the ground. The wingman landed to provide assistance but was forced from the area by enemy fire. The remains of the four men were recovered the next day.
