Ron,
Up until recently we had 3 Vietnam Vet helo's at the Marine Corps Air Station here. That's how old they were. Used for Air Sea Rescue. They just recently retired the SAR unit here. One Helo stayed for display, the others went to New River, NC I think are are still being used. Blades, who used to post here, checked with the Air Station and sure enough, one of those helos was the same one he flew in Nam. Hull numbers matched. Marine Corps gets and uses a bunch of old stuff.
