: I don't remember who was crewing 517 that day.
: According to my journal I was on 521 with
: Hightower as my gunner and Mr.J.D.Ryan was
: the A/C. We were at Dak To doing resupply
: and were pulled to play C/C ship after 524
: went off station.

: That was my first time dealing with LZ Swinger
: and the Plei-Trap but not my last.

Thanks for that, Ron. My journal shows that 517 took the place of 524. Were you, in 521, also flying C&C in our area?
BTW, LZ Swinger (YA837967) was 1/14th FSB to the NNW of Chu Moor (YA844892) and our FSB "noname" (as far as I can remember 1/22nd never named their FSB's) was just east across the valley from Chu Moor, a hill called Chu Ya Bruh (YA868888).
Do you know where the Dustoff units came from and how I can get in-touch with them?
