Wolfe, an Army ceremonies at Hanchey Field SFC from Cleveland, Minn., w here the Army trains Vietnam raised his hand for three years chopper combat crews and pi-
lots.
Wolfe demanded that old “135” — an abbreviation of the aircraft’s identifying number 622135 — be present when he signed up for another three years. Together they had made aviation history. The helicopter and Wolfe have been serving together, first stateside and then in combat, for nearly three years. They "met” here in September, 1965, when Wolfe took over as crew chief and flew' “135” to nearby Ft. Benning, Ga., to join the 147th Assault Support Helicopter Company going to Viet-
nam.
At the Georgia post, *‘135” met a cruel fate. She was stripped of vital parts needed on other aircraft going overseas. When parts became available, Wolfe saw to it that “135” got shaped up. He even painted it. “We did it out in the wind. I must admit it looked like we went over it with a mop,” Wolfe
said.
On the way to California. “135” sprang a leak from a cracked transmission. “We put a five-gallon pail under the leak and made the rest of the trip,” he said. After repairs, “135” went to Vietnam and into combat immediately. “She had the most flying time of all aircraft in the company. We set a goal to run the time over 1.000 hours," Wolfe said. She later did it — the first CH-47 in the Army, other than testing aircraft, to make it. This was in September, 1966. The next month Wolfe came home, leaving old "135” in Vietnam. Wolfe didn’t expect to see her again. Just after Christmas last year, he got an assignment to go to i Corpus Christi, Tex., and bring back a CH-47 which was being overhauled for use here as a trainer. Shortly after he arrived, he went to look at the helicopter he would crew on the flight to this post. There sat "ISS”
