Warrior Two Six: A Vietnam Helicopter Pilot’s Story

A Vietnam helicopter pilot’s story. James E. Miller, Chief Warrant Officer (CW2), Aircraft Commander of Warrior Two Six, and recipient of the Army Commendation Medal and Distinguished Flying Cross takes you through his experiences from basic training to the dangerous skies of Vietnam. This story is enhanced with comments from his crew chief Don Johnson and gunner Steve Zanini. While other crews were rotating daily, the crew of Warrior Two Six stayed together for eight of their 12-month tour of duty. Forty-two years later, they had the chance of a lifetime to fly a completely restored Warrior 11, part of the same 336th Assault Helicopter Company they served with in Soc Trang.
