Comments: | My name is Dan Faryna I was stationed at Vin Long from March, 68 to March 69. I was a spec 4 then spec 5. I was a helicopter machanic for the Mavericks and Outlaws and worked mostly night shift but did some day shifts. While I was stationed there it was the 150th transportation and then changed to The 175th assualt helicopters. I have been trying to locate others from the maintainance hanger who served at the same time as I did. Some names I remember are: Heightmen, Littleton, Shot.
Saunders and John johnson who were were gunners for the Outlaws in 68.
If anyone can tell me how to connect with the maintainance company, I would appreciate it since I have been unable to find any information on them myself. Or if you know any of these people can you put them in touch with me. Thanks |

Comments: | If you did not attend our Outlaw Savannah Roundup 2012 during Sep 6-10, you missed a great opportunity to renew old friendships and make new ones. Watch for an update of our website www.vinhlongoutlaws.com that reflects the grand time all in attendance had. And, make plans for our 50th Anniversary Roundup in 2014 in Washington D.C. |

Comments: | Looking for any information on anyone who knew my dad. His name was Steven Andreoff. I have a jacket of his that was made in Vietnam, on the front it says Andreoff O.L.25 and on the back it shows a Huey with Vinh Long under it 68-69, on the top it says 175th Assault. Hel. Co. I also found a picture of him sitting in the door with his M-60. On the helmet are two snorting bulls where the visor is. Just want to know anything. Thank you. |

Comments: | I was the AC for Outlaw 18 when I finished my Mar 70 to Mar 71 tour. I posted close to 400 photos taken during my tour on Flickr. Google 175th AHC Outlaws for the link. There are lots of folks I can not recall from 40 years ago, so feel free to comment and add names to many of them. Photos of OL24 AFTER its bad night; Mavericks AFTER the retrograde ammo point blew up; Tommy Ivey, who had been my crewchief for a while; the Maverick Stand Down, etc. A lot of First Platoon Outlaws!
I hope you have a wonderful reunion! OUTLAWS RULE!
