Anybody remember a Gy/Sgt. Gene Gadd? He was HMM-365 parts SNCOIC in 1966-67 and knew every nut, bolt and washer on a UH-34D! He was my first boss when I reported to the squadron fresh out of AD(R) School in Memphis. Never saw him or heard about him again. Line Chief when we were changing over to CH-46's was Gy/Sgt. Paul France.... loved old Buicks. He was my second boss... He still around??
Found Gene Gadd here is his information: 2537 Cantrell St. Irving, TX 75062 home phone 972-252-3786. Talked with him for about 15 minutes on the phone. He told me he went into Vietnam with HMM-161 from Hawaii, and was with 365 back in the states. He does not have a computer so you 161 and 365 guys get some information in the mail to him. He seemed interested in getting to DC in 2008. To bad we did not find him sooner since he was just down the road from Fort Worth.
Gadd found!
Allyn,
You are unbelieveable! Great work, Sir! Many Thanks!
