The work horse helicopter for Army Aviation groups, the Huey has proud heritage just as those who flew them. Whether flying as a slick or armed to the teeth as a gunship, it carried men in harm's way and brought them out. We owe a debt of gratitude to these brave men who have fought and defended our way of life.
