Received following request for info.

 

From: Jack Kull <john.f.kull.ctr@mail.mil>
Subject: Request for Information/Assistance

Message Body:
Good morning and Happy New Year,

I am a contractor assigned to the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) working MACVSOG losses.

On 6 MAR 1967 (maybe 5 MAR), a SOG Hatchet force was inserted into Salavan Province, Laos, by USMC CH-46s.  One SF/SOG NCO was lost and remains unaccounted for when one of the CH-46s was shot down.  I originally believed the downed CH-46 was from HMM 265 but have since learned that was not the case and that HMMs 164, 165, and 262 also flew CH-46s and at various times supported MACVSOG missions.  

DPAA is interested in speaking with any CH-46 pilot/crew, as well as gunship escort crews, who either were on that mission or have any recollections of the incident. We especially would like to locate the pilots/crew of the downed CH-46.

 I can be reached at john.f.kull.ctr@mail.mil, as well as the phone number below.

Many thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Best regards

Jack Kull
