Richard Hawes
Vietnam | Marine Attack Squadron 224, 1st Marine Air Wing, Marine Aircraft Group 12
It was a startling discovery only two miles from the air field at Chu Lai, where Marine pilot Richard Hawes was based. A vast underground bunker facility dug by the Viet Cong, which required large bombs with delayed fuses to destroy. In the air, most of his missions were short, sometimes within sight of the air field. (3:11)
