On 01 Feb 1966 four HMM-261 aircraft were launched escorted by two U.S. Army BANDITS. The aircraft lifted a total of 20 U.S. Marines to LZ BS 422595 to search for a grave and bring back the remains. While the aircraft were circling the zone awaiting the pick-up, mission 130c was received. Two of the aircraft proceeded to BS 625297 for the retraction of a recon patrol consisting of 5 U. S. Marines. The Marines were lifted to BA to (BS 565330)
Any one remember the grave story?

Sounds like something we would have put in our daily sitrep, but it doesn't ring a bell. Could this have been either the first or last parts of "Double Eagle". The MAG had Army Huey "fireteams" assigned then.
