@SGTWipper1Each And if you're retired they still want a secondary insurance card presented...even if you are 100% Service Connected. Someone is getting paid well

Tony Buholtz was from Miami, Florida, and became an Army helicopter pilot with A Troop, 1st Squadron, 9th Cavalry, 1st Cavalry Division.

He flew the OH-6A Loach, the tiny scout helicopter that went looking for the enemy at low level so the rest of the air cavalry could react.

On March 22, 1969, Tony was flying OH-6A 67-16482, call sign Apache White, in Tay Ninh Province when the helicopter was hit by ground fire and crashed. Crew chief SP5 Robert Patrick Ilsley and observer PFC James David Wright Jr. were also killed. Tony was 21 years old.

His record included the Silver Star, Bronze Star Medal, Air Medal with five Oak Leaf Clusters, and Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Cluster. That is a remarkable combat record for a man who never reached 22.

So remember 1LT Tony Lee Buholtz not only for the Loach that went down over Tay Ninh, but for the young man from Miami who climbed into one of the most dangerous helicopters in Vietnam and kept going back up.

@LoperamidAkut @gunfanatics1 Agreed. The only one I'm missing is the FAL I traded in for my first M1A's.

@DRfeedback83 @gunfanatics1 I was today years old when I learned this. FFS I probably still have a couple headspace n timing feeler gauges in my "junk drawer" of stuff from the service

[Nick Bondgien @bondgien]

@gunfanatics1 Tough call between the HiPower and CZ...but gotta go with the CZ. The CZ offers the larger(albeit oversized) trigger guard guaranteed to get a gloved finger on the trigger wo potential issues.

@trumplicans2024 Maybe
