In 1963, the U.S. Army began developing the 1st Cavalry Division for jungle fighting in Vietnam. It would be the first division fully dependent on helicopters for assault and support. During the 1968 Tet Offensive, Ed Corlew served as a crew chief and door gunner aboard a CH-47 “Chinook,” based 15 miles from the DMZ. Well armed and able to deploy platoon-sized infantry units, the tandem-rotored Chinook and its crew were a formidable weapon in jungle warfare-large and lightly armored, they also presented easy targets. Corlew was shot down three times: in the Battle of Hue, the Battle of Quang Tri, and the A Shau Valley. His memoir relates harrowing missions over landing zones beset with hidden enemy positions and his return home and reflections on the war.
