This helicopter was known as the "Iroquois" or "Griffon."
The first prototype was flown in 1956. Over 7,000 were built by 1973 and were
in service with all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces and most other Allied Nations.
The "Huey" was typically armed with two to four machine guns or 48 unguided rockets.
The "Huey" will always be remembered as a symbol of the Vietnam War.
