Bob,
I'm not quite sure what TACOM (Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command) would have to do with a surplus Huey or Cobra. I would think something like that would fall under the control of AMCOM (Aviation and Missle Command) in Huntsville, AL. I'll send this along to Gail's son Matt and see if he can find out any more details. I stopped in to see him a couple of weeks ago when I went back to work to get a haircut and visit a couple of buddies. Matt was bored to death, so this will give him something to do.
