Great thread. I've just finished all 12 pages. I was in Benning at OCS when they filmed the movie. I remember our Air Mobile Ops exercise was postponed because Duke had all the Hueys tied up. If I recall they used a lot of OCs from another company as VC in the camp assault.
Later, when I was with the 10th in 68 at Flint, they had a premier before the movie hit the civilian theaters. Very cool.
The bier flowed like water that night.
