U. S. Army's 1st Air Cavalry Division Conducts Massive Air Assault in South Vietnam-October 20, 1967
October 20, 1967
During a recent operation, units of the U. S. Army's 1st Air Cavalry Division, based at An Khe, South Vietnam, conducted a massive air assault on positions near the South China Sea.
Considerable coordination is involved in employing the air mobility concept,
including the use of artillery, observation helicopters, UH-1 "Huey" "Gun Ships" armed with rockets and machine guns, and CH-47 "Chinook" and "Huey" "Slick Ship" unarmed, troop- carrying helicopters .
Troops board "Huey" helicopters bound for the battle area.
Aerial rocket artillery softens up landing zones (LZ) where the troop- carrying helicopters will unload their passengers .
"Huey" "Gun Ships", fly with the troop carrying "Slick Ships" to provide protection and serve as a form of aerial artillery. CH-47 "Chinook" twin-rotorchoppers, which also carry airborne cavalrymen, fly in formation with the "Hueys ". The "Chinooks ", often called the workhorse of the infantry, are heavy cargo helicopters used primarily in resupply operations . For this mission, they carry soldiers .
After the landing zones have been saturated with aerial rockets from the "GunShips", the helicopters land, off-load troops, and depart rapidly.
Some of the choppers land on a small plateau, others on a hilltop beside the
ocean, and others on the beach itself.
The soldiers quickly move out from the helicopters into positions around the
landing zone to defend it in case of enemy opposition in the operation.
Thanks to the helicopter, men and equipment can be moved quickly and precisely into selected battle positions . Helicopter air mobility has proved an important factor in the type of tactics employed by American forces in Vietnam.

Medal of Honor Ceremony for Specialist Lawrence Joel
For action this day in the Iron Triangle northwest of Saigon, Specialist Five Lawrence Joel, a medic with the 1st Battalion, 503rd Airborne Infantry, 173rd Airborne Brigade, is awarded the Medal of Honor, becoming the first living African American since the Spanish-American War to receive the nation’s highest award for valor.
When his unit was outnumbered in an attack by an enemy force, Specialist Joel, who suffered a severe leg wound in the early stages of the battle, continued to administer aid to his wounded comrades. Wounded a second time—with a bullet lodged deep in his lungs—Joel continued to treat the wounded, completely disregarding the battle raging around him and his own safety. Even after the 24-hour battle had subsided, Joel, a 38-year-old father of two, continued to treat and comfort the wounded until his own evacuation was ordered.
President Johnson presented the Medal of Honor to Specialist Joel on March 9, 1967, in ceremonies held on the South Lawn of the White House.
