Remembering a friend
I was flying with Bill on the day he died. Bill and Mr. Royal were
Our wing man that day. We were flying a Hunter/killer mission in our OH-6A helicopters at extreme low level. I saw him go down with CW2 Royal. I wanted to thank them both for saving my life by sacrificing their lives. They were shot down with a new missile being deployed in Vietnam. The missile was fired at 1stLt. Zeibert and me. Mr. Royal and Bill flew between us and the missile and got hit instead of us. I have never forgotten that day and will carry it to my grave along with my eternal gratitude for their action. Rest in peace my friend.
