Fellow Uglies, can you clear up a little delemia for me, please. I would like to know if our membership is based on our having been in combat or being an aircrew member of Marine aircraft.

The artical in Pop-A-Smoke by Roger Herman has got me thinking. If we change the name to USMC/Combat Helicopter Association won't that mean that all future members must be combat vets?

I have no preference concerning the combat rating as a Marine is a Marine to my way of thinking.

Ps. I hope the spelling is right!
