Name: | Hal Tiahrt eglin401@cox.net | Entry: | Just cleaning out the attic and remembering the "good ole days." Was in 40ARRS at NKP. Somehow I "acquired" a H-43 Flight Crew Checklist (I am a H53 guy) issued to Baumgartier, an FM. It is difficult to read the name/date, but the manuals control # is 13. If someone wants/needs it, contact me. | Date: | May 09, 2013 8:02 | |

Name: | Robert Schrynemakers rhschryn@socal.rr.com | Entry: | Reading the account of the crash of March 27, 1972, Jolly Green 61, of the 40th ARRS, from NKP, In Cambodia.
I was a "passenger" on that flight as a member of the Intelligence Directorate, 56th Special Operations Wing, at NKP.
I was given a lift from NKP to Ubon by the crew as we had NKP aircrews flying from Ubon in support of the war in Cambodia.
I will always remember how shortly after I was dropped off at Ubon, Jolly Green 62, crashed, with no survivors.
No cause was ever given, ground fire? Mechanical?
If someone has any information about this, please get in touch with me.
