Preserving The Oral HistorIES of Combat Veterans

COMBAT STORIES FROM Vietnam

Charles White, Jr. | 23rd Tactical Air Support Squadron - Air Force

8:01   |   Forward Air Controller Charles White, Jr. describes a heart wrenching rescue mission that ended when the enemy found the downed airmen. It was dangerous for the FAC's, too, and he was shot at many times. While supporting Laotian ground troops, there were no fighter aircraft available so he attacked in his spotter plane with white phosphorus "Willy Pete" marker rounds.
