I was stationed at Fort Hood 79-81, 528th transportation company, 169th maintenance battalion, 13th Coscom. We were an avim unit supporting the rotary wing units on base . I was on a crash recovery team at that time also. I will never forget having to go to the crash site of OV-1C Mohawk # 68-15935 outside Lampasas Texas in January of 1981 to recover the remains of CW3 Sandy Oliphant , SSGT Roger Meadows and the wreckage of their aircraft It took us a week to clean the side of this hill and a large pasture downrange for several hundred yards. I drove the 5 ton tractor with the long lowboy trailer. We also took along a few M-35A2's pulling a water buffalo & a cargo trailer containing our GP large tent, recovery tools and C-rations. We also had one of our UH-1H's onsite for the runs back and forth to Fort Hood. I will never forget the things I saw that week we were out there

Look into the 101st bird shot down in Somalia by an RPG. Pilots were the only survivors. PC pulled PI out of the burning wreckage, held hostiles off with only an M-9 until an APC came and got them out. PC received the Silver Star and actually got to buy that M-9 from the gov't, at his insisting and a Senators help, at the govt's price.

I am part of a CH-47 Unit preparing to deploy. We just lost a good portion of our M9s due to an outdated MTOE. While I am doing my operational needs statement for ordering more, I am looking to site examples of aviation crashes where the only thing the aviator has after the crash is what is on their person. (the door gunners M240 in mounted and not easily dismounted in a crash, and useless in a rollover, and the pilots M4 is mounted and hard to access after a crash sequence) Does anyone have concrete examples that I may use in my Operational Needs Statement?

I made an annotation in the Notes area about Cote being attached to 38 CAB.

I have seen two other posts about Spc Cote. On both the other posts people have been bringing to the attention of every reader that Spc Cote was from A co 1-52 in Fort Wainwright, Alaska. It seems to me that the guys running this website are ignoring every post about this. Now, if it was untrue I would totally understand. But......, with very little effort and research I have seen that Spc Cote was from A co 1-52 and furthermore, he was a great person. He left behind a daughter who he only met once and a wife who's life is forever altered. Now really? How hard would it be to mention Spc Cote's actual unit and home station. When Spc Cote's baby daughter is all grown-up give her the opportunity to read an actual fact based story of her father's last moments. Please do a google search and you will see that we are telling the truth. On this day of honoring our veterans, please amend your post and honor Spc Cote properly.

Michael Cote was only attached to 38th CAB. He was active duty stationed at Fort Wainwright Alaska. Due to a training event he was participating in door gunnery with a 38th CAB helicopter. Almost everybody in the back of the helicopter was from Fort Wainwright Alaska. I feel you should atleast mention this FACT in your post because we feel a great loss here at his home station. There are a few other crewmembers that also suffered life altering injuries. It is only fair to let all the the people who come to this site know where he comes from. A co 1-52 Avn Reg (Tomahawks). Just look at the patch in the photo you posted, it's Alaska's binky bear. He is gone, but not forgotten. Disregard the other post I linked it incorrectly.
