In MemoriamThere were at least 259 C130 Crew Members who made the ultimate sacrifice flying in South East Asia from April 1965 until December 1972.They were lost on many different types of missions. Airlift, Tanker, Gunship, Blind Bat, Black Bird, Air America to name a few. I put together this page to honor their sacrifice.
