achterkirch Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Will doing some research for a build I want to do I uncovered a documentary mad last year about this unit called scramble the Seawolves. I was wonder if anyone has seen if and what your take is on it before I go and buy it? Thought it might be a interesting one to have and it would go along with the docuseries The Vietnam War I just finished up not to long ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And has this web page about it, https://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/sep/12/scramble-seawolves/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael A. Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 21 and Bullet Proof About 10 years ago a You--Tube Video '21 and Bullet Proof' was available. 45 - 60 minutes as I recall, with most excellent footage. It had no narration but was choreographed to some 'inspirational' music of the day. I tried to look it up again a few years back and it had apparently been pulled / canceled for having used music without the proper prior approvals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HCS-5 AO1 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 As an aside, it was just announced that the Maintainers for the Seawolves are eligible to wear the Navy Enlisted Warfare Specialist wings and it was a group of pilots and aircrew that fought to get that for them, I can give anyone the link for the information if they ask in a PM should they know a Seawolf. That was announced on their Facebook page not too long ago. I was a member of one of their successor squadrons, HAL-5, later HCS-5 in the late 80s and then again in the late 90s so getting vetted into the group was easy. I never post anything there other than the occasional congrats to someone I know but reading their recollections is an education in itself. The HAL-3 association is a active group that shows how dedicated to serving these guys are. Thanks for the link, I'm going to watch is and see if I can spot couple younger versions of three of the ones I served with before they retired as they all were good mentors and friends.

Winnie Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Completely off topic, but at Cabellas in Ft. Worth, the HUGE one, one of the greeters last year was a door gunner at HAL-3... I shook his hand! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
