Flying a Loach with a Vietnam Crew Chief Veteran - ArmA 3 SOG Prairie Fire

Is there anything cooler than this? Flying a mission with a guy who lived it for real... wow what an honor just to watch and hear the crazy stories... some of them make the game just seem tame. lol. Thanks so much to Don and Drew for sharing this with us, my favorite gamer video ever! It would be sick to make this a thing (unless u already do and I just don't know about it), like having a S.W.A.T team member do a game clearing a building and so on, a jet pilot for that role, and so on, because this was great!

[@slandshark]

Right around 16:00 you talk about mounting guns on the helicopters. Not related to vietnam war, but my father in law is a machinist for the air force and did the same thing in Iraq, fabricated mounts for getting door guns onto helicopters, often while under mortar fire. First time I met him was the day he flew back to the US. I'd been dating his daughter for a few months at that point. Gotta say I felt mad respect for him and completely nervous. :) Married his daughter though, been married 11 years now. He had some interesting stories about what they built while in Iraq.

[@dubwars]

I've never played this game, and most likely never will. However, hearing stories from an individual that experienced this IRL is incomparable. For me, you might have just uploaded the best content you ever will. You set the bar high on this one.

[@MaugriMGER]

Just a quesion: Why you wont ever play Arma?

[@dubwars]

​@@MaugriMGER It has nothing to do with the game itself, so no disrespect to the game. I know I wouldn't play it though. I do enjoy content from a number of KZbinrs due to their great content, video editing, etc. I'm fine being a consumer while still supporting the creators.

[@MaugriMGER]

@@dubwars I was only curious. you read quite often that people will never play a game and there are a variety of reasons. But I can say that if you are interested in something like that, you can try it out. In sales you can usually get Arma very cheaply and you can also try out the game through campaigns, etc. The way to Milsim is then not really far and you can usually make connections quickly.

[@dubwars]

​@@MaugriMGER Thank you for the genuine and honest reply here. It's great to see positivity online these days with so many people immediately cutting others down for not liking or doing what they do. The financials of the game is not a problem for me. What I don't have is the network of friends that also play this title, which would help me in learning the game/actions/etc... that most of the players know these days. It always helps to have friends assist you into a new "world", including gaming.

[@MaugriMGER]

@@dubwars You really dont need friends. Sounds a little bit sad. ^^ Arma is a game where you can easily find a group or a Unit to play with and normally they will help you with everything. I have a german Arma Unit since 2012/2013 and we often invite people that are new to Arma. These days Arma units are happy for every new Member because the game is not young anymore and more and more players give up playing arma.

we're all helping bringing these vets home and welcoming them in our society. making up for the epic fail of the vietnam generation to support veterans of an unpopular war. so many parallels today, but at least people seem to have learned the lesson and thank and support the warriors even if they didn't want the war.

[@blakerobling1188]

I grew up near Ft.Hood and it led to me meeting a ton of vietnam vets, honestly if you give them the chance they can tell you some amazing stories. My favorite one was from my step-grandfather who was also a crew chief. Told me of how they had an RPG dud stuck about 6 inches from the seat he was in and had a 2 hour ride back to base, longest time he ever prayed.

[@b-52eggbeast88]

Outstanding!

[@sirraccs9584]

I remember when I showed my grandfather this game, he was a Green Beret in Vietnam, he loved every bit of it. He said a lot of the places looked almost exactly how it was, and he kept telling stories of certain sections that he either recognized or thought of. This video reminded me a lot of those moments, and I’m glad you were able to capture these pure moments of reminiscing

[@hughescrewchief836]

Ghostrider Don Here; Thanks for sharing with your grandfather. I play with my grandson twice a week. Green Berets and us aviators advise on the game.

[@b-52eggbeast88]

That’s one of the things we love about making it - that vets can talk to their families more because we and others (jocko/ tilt podcasts as an example) are putting out factual histories respectfully and listening to vets. So happy to hear that our game could help you have that talk with your grandpa. Be sure to listen when he speaks - he’ll set you on the right path in life!

My dad was with the 334th AHC, 1st platoon out of Bein Hoa ('66-'69). He was a part of the team that brought the first Cobra's in country. In the early days most were shot up because our pilots hadn't learned how to maximize their capabilities. Our pilots were use to flying the Huey's and had to get comfortable with the speed and maneuverability the Cobra provided. They also experimented with installing 50 cal's in Hueys to use on sanpans and other boats on the rivers.

As he put it “couldn’t feel my foot thought oh God dammit I’ve gone and blown my foot off, “but he could still operate the rudders so he made it home turned out he hadn’t taken an injury in his foot he had just taken damage on the aircraft right by his feet.

That's awesome you guys were able to get someone like Don, who was there to not only jump in the chopper but actually play the gunner position while he shared his experiences in country, fantastic experience. thank you for doing that for us who watch your channel and thank Don profusely for his contribution and sacrifice as a veteran and those made by his friends who fought in Vietnam, and of course, for the loved ones who had an equally difficult burden to bear, who endured the hell it must be when someone you love may or may not come home from deployment and all the sacrifices that must be made following everyone's experience with/in a war zone. Vietnam was a particularly nasty experience for our country, heroes like Don, that share their experiences are absolutely invaluable to us younger Americans, we should learn as much as we can so our generations don't make the same mistakes and can capitalize on the successes and sacrifices of Americans who came before us...

Thought the vet was giving grandpa vibes when he was speaking about “51” caliber but after a little research I found some other vets that called the nvas anti air 51 caliber so I guess it was a similar idea to how in ww2 the us differentiated the different m4 Sherman guns by calling them 75 mm and the 76 mm guns even though they had the same diameter. This would definitely be lost to history because I have never heard anyone call the Vietnamese guns 51 caliber. Please do more of these!!!
