Thanks Jeff, pretty amazing stuff there is actually about 40 min worth but I had to trim it down for YouTube to share with you all. He got the full version.

That was outstanding. Perfect music in the beginning, did not expect the narration. That was great stuff, the blood stained Huey was pretty chilling.

Thank so much. He is a great family friend of ours, and has amazing stories. I have to be honest if Hollywood would have portrayed that in a movie I would have thought is was just dramatization. Pretty chilling stuff. hard to believe these guys were so young.
