COMBAT STORIES FROM Vietnam

Gary Cantwell | 1st Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Cavalry Division - Army

3:59   |   The elephant grass was deep and the pilot wasn't really low enough. When Gary Cantwell jumped from the Huey he rolled his ankle. He was evacuated to the rear and his ankle was so bad that he wound up assigned to supply for the rest of his tour. He also went down in a helicopter when a turbine failed but he was luckier then.
