April, 1962
40 years ago, in April of ’62, Lt. Col Archie Clapp brought HMR(L)-362 to Soc Trang, RVN. This was the first tactical USMC unit to operate in Vietnam. Their mission was to provide mobility to the ARVNs and PFs in their battle against the VC. Much of the doctrine for using helicopters in combat, particularly guerilla warfare was developed during this 1962-65 period.
