In this episode of Dearest Suzie, Popi recounts a challenging day filled with the recovery of a downed Huey helicopter, the long wait under the scorching sun during a formal medal ceremony, and a disturbing injury that reflects the psychological toll of war. I also provide some background on another helicopter.
Accompanied by a photograph of soldiers standing at attention among U.S. state flags, today’s episode offers a glimpse into the daily challenges of military life during the Vietnam War.
What’s Covered:
-The rescue of a UH-1B troop ship and the role of the H-37 Mojave helicopter.
-A formal ceremony where Silver and Bronze Stars were awarded to members of the 114th.
-A supply sergeant’s self-inflicted injury, shedding light on the mental health strain faced by soldiers.
