From One Huey / Cobra Mech To Another
Welcome aboard Matt
I spent alot of years at Pendleton at HMA-169 back in the old days ('75)
I was a 6125 (engine mech) initially but got over to being a 6114 when the AH-1J's & UH-1N's first came out
Did the whole plane captain, collateral duty inspector, Huey crew chief, test mechanic, quality assurance rep, and finally went to namtragrudet where I spent 3 years teaching the 8 week helo mechs course and the pilots familiarization course
I also did some time in Marietta, GA at the Cobra, Huey, OV-10 detachment before I got into the Warrant Officer Program and became an NBC Officer
Good luck in Japan and we look forward to seeing your TTA once you get back
Regards,
Ray
