Any time a helicopter went over, that affected me
very much because I saw some guys die in a helicopter,
well, actually two helicopter crashes in Vietnam.
Loud noises, don't like to hear those
because I heard enough rockets and shells coming in.
One of my experiences in Vietnam -- and I won't get into
details about the experience, but flying over North Vietnam
at night, in the mountains, at low level, in an unarmed transport
and then having the Vietnamese tracking you
with their SAM missiles, firing at you with anti-aircraft...
And one night we had a MiG-21 fighter come down
and try to chase us, so a few stressor factors there
that I can still visualize, I still can.
I've had trouble in the last nine months or so,
since I went through the PTSD training,
to even drag up those images, but they're there.
