I don't believe that those have been posted before. They are very accurate. I've spent many hours in Stabo Rigs!! Those must have been filmed either down south or close to the coast because all that we could get onto our Hueys was four of us. My Team took a flight of at least 9 Slicks for a normal insertion!!
The Cable Ladders were a trip also!! They were using the old method, with someone holding the bottom, we went up and down them on the sides, straddling the edge of the ladder. You could move much faster that way and you were very close to a cable that you could "snap into"!!
Most of that was real old footage, did you notice the BARs!!
At about 5:26 into the third one, the guy with the Boonie Hat looks like Fred Zabitoski!!
Thanks for the links.
Take care.
