w/o 30Aug67, Quang Tri, RVN. HMM-262
1967-08-31 The correct date of its final mission is 31Aug67. This aircraft came apart due to aft pylon failure, taking 5 souls
The data is incorrect. The breakup was caused by a rotor blade failure due to battle damage. The aircraft shook itself to pieces. I still have a small piece of the aircraft, because I did the bullet hole repair to the rotor blade. The blade failed after apron 100 flight hours. The date is correct.
