Comments: I noticed with interest a photo of 66-16298. I flew that bird when she first arrived to the 135th EMUS. We received several aircraft with that series of numbers. My acft was 66-16289. All the new acft were sister ships to the ones we took over in late 67. The newest acft that we took over was 66-16275 so you can see that 298 was built right after 275 and I understand was stored in texas during the Lycoming strike Emu 28

Comments: Hi, My name is Chrissy Jackson and my father in law, Bruce Jackson served in Vietnam from 67-68 in the 240th ASLT HELCO Greyhounds division (copied straight off his plaque, not sure the proper name), in maintenance/service. He recently passed away last week and my husband and I were given all of his pictures and Vietnam stuff. I am not sure if you can help me, or even point me in the right direction, but I am interested in finding out more about his military service I also have 1000's of pictures that he took in Vietnam and slides (Kodachrome) that I have been going through. Some have names and locations and I would be interested in sharing with others who may be interested in me posting or scanning, etc. I know they may be valuable to his former brothers to see. I do not know a lot from Bruce himself, because he did not talk about the war. He was from Akron, Ohio and served from 67-68. If only those pictures could talk. I know there were so many of these guys and this is a long shot, but it is worth a try. Thank you and God Bless America
