Comments on Incident:
On take off from aft platform of ship the a/c lost power and crashed into the water. Troops were aboard the aircraft.
Comments on Incident:
Yrs. have passed, but remember this incident clearly. Watched the bird take off, dip' blades, and hit the ship. The bird sank fast. Navy crew members of ship ran out with M-1 rifles to keep any sharks off survivors if they came.
Saw only a few crew members swimming and no grunts. We where loaded down with full gear and ammo for the operation ahead. Submitted by Michael L.Meeker, Marine Infantry, 1 Bn/3rd Mar, on operation
