Final Mission of 1LT Jeffrey Lyle Whynaught

img
On March 15, 1969, a U.S. Army helicopter UH-1C (tail number 66-15159) from the 175th Assault Helicopter Company was operating in Chuong Thien Province (IV Corps) providing close air support when it came under enemy small arms fire (AK-47). The attack caused the aircraft to catch fire and crash. Three crewmen on board suffered fatal injuries in the crash. They were aircraft commander 1LT Jeffrey L. Whynaught, crew chief SP5 John W. Price, and gunner SP4 Edgar G. McAdams. The pilot, WO1 Robins, survived his injuries. The aircraft burned and was completely destroyed. [Taken from vhpa.org]

Nearly 50 years later...

I still remember you as my babysitter, horseyback riding on your back around the house. I remember the images on the b&w television, bringing the war into our living rooms. I remember coming inside one day to see my Mom hanging up the phone and sobbing. Seeing, touching, rubbing your name on the wall as one of the 58,000 lost in Vietnam makes it so real... as it is for each and every name on that Memorial... on every Memorial. To me, you will always be my hero. Remembering you this, and every, Memorial Day.
