George,
Attached are 2 pictures of YR-23 that were taken 12/78' in Unchon S. Korea. I was amazed that it was the same A/C that had been described in your earlier post as "The most combat damaged CH-46 in Nam?" You'll be happy to know that she was still working her butt off hauling grunts and junk for our beloved Corps.

your YR-23 was 154807
FYI
154803 was the helicopter that lifted the US ambassador off the roof in Saigon in 1975. Retired to Norfolk, VA .

YR-23
George,
Any way of finding out the final disposition -
Could it still be active?

154807, now a CH-46E, was last noted as active with HMM-262, coded ET-05, in December 2002.
