Lucky Tucson Nam Vets. The guest speaker at the Huey Symposium, on Sunday February 24th at 3pm, is Robert Mason, the author of the well known book, “Chickenhawk.” Bob was a Huey pilot in the Vietnam war. His wife Patience Mason is legend for her work with PTSD. She pioneered some of the modalities for working with the spouses and families of combat veterans. My wife and I are proud to count her as a friend. We have read most all or works and attended retreats with Patience. This couple are a major force in the healing arena.
Of course the catalyst for her work is her husband and his experiences in Vietnam. This is going to be a real treat.
It is so comforting to see the Pima Air Museum featuring more of the Vietnam War.

There is an unmistakeable sound to the rotor blades of a Huey that is unlike that of any other helicopter. And the sound of 12 or 16 of them coming in to a LZ is a an unforgettable sound even after more than four decades..
Yup!
