Spirit in the Sky - Norman Greenbaum | Vietnam War | Huey Iroquois

UH-1 Huey Helicopter The most widely used military helicopter, the Bell UH-1 series Iroquois, better known as the “Huey“, began arriving in Vietnam in 1963. Before the end of the conflict, more than 5,000 of these versatile aircraft were introduced into Southeast Asia. “Hueys“ were used for MedEvac, command and control, and air assault; to transport personnel and materiel; and as gun ships. Considered to be the most widely used helicopter in the world, with more than 9,000 produced from the 1950s to the present, the Huey is flown today by about 40 countries.
