Vietnam War History
1964 - 1975

"When the history of this war is finally written, I feel that the story of Air Rescue may well become one of the outstanding human dramas in the entire history of the Air Force. Air Rescue did not begin, of course, with the war in Vietnam. But the extent of the operation, the dangers involved, and the dedication shown on an everyday basis --month after month-- makes these rescue operations something unique in our military history. . . . These men are all heroes, but they're also normal Americans from all walks of life. They come from the cities and the farms. They share the same hopes and fears that concern us all. . . ."

"Certainly, the Aerospace Rescue and Recovery people deserve their immortality. For they have lived up to their motto as if it were a solemn pledge: That others may live."

Dr. Harold Brown, Secretary of the Air Force during the Vietnam War
