This is a color film produced by the United States Army during the Vietnam War. It shows the helicopter training conducted mainly at Fort Rucker, Alabama, in which the new pilots are taught how to fly helicopters with day and night navigation, instrument training, machine gun range training and the final eight day testing period required before the new helicopter pilot got his wings as a U. S. Army aviator. The new helicopter pilots started their actual training in small two place helicopters and transitioned into the famous Huey helicopter of Vietnam War fame. Upon completion of the course the newly minted aviators were commissioned as Warrant Officers. Some Vietnam footage. The regular VHS film has been converted to the much sharper DVD format, and the visual and audio quality is quite good. Each winning bidder will receive a cloth shoulder patch of MACV (Military Assistance Command - Vietnam), and a sheet of return address labels with the patch of MACV - or any other patch you choose - printed on them along with your name and address. About 30 exciting and interesting minutes running time, and comes in an attractive plastic case as illustrated. This DVD is brand new!
