The 173rd Airborne Brigade deployed to Vietnam in May, 1965. They served in III Corps, based at Bien Hoa, until mid 1967. They moved to II Corps and based at An Khe until April 1969. They then moved toward the coast to conduct operations along Route 1-the main north/south highway in Vietnam. They based out of Bong Son in II Corps until leaving Vietnam in August, 1971.
This UH-1H, served as a command aircraft for the 173rd Brigade in early-mid 1969. The Brigade logo is displayed on the front cargo door. The logo possibly also appeared on the nose. Photos of some other 173rd ships from this period have the brigade nose insignia. A red and white Brigadier General's placard is displayed on the frame post behind the pilot's door. The front edges of the skids are painted yellow. A step was attached to each side of most command and VIP Hueys. It was located just below the bottom edge of the cargo deck, and just behind the front cargo door. The tail can't be seen on photos of this aircraft, so tail details are speculative
