Vietnam The Chopper War
Moving Image Item Number: 640VI2734
  • Not Available
  • NOT DIGITIZED
[Number of Pages: 0]
As US Troops were committed in ever-increasing numbers in the 1960s to protect South Vietnam from Communist takeover, it became clear they faced a double enemy in the Vietcong and the inhospitable South-East Asian terrain. The helicopter turned the tide, revolutionizing the face of warfare at a stroke and laying down a blueprint for the future. With much previously classified film footage shot on both the ground and in the air, this program examines the integral role played by the helicopter.

Desert Sky - The Untold Story of the 159th Aviation Brigade in Iraq told by the Soldiers
Moving Image Item Number: 069VI3608
  • Not Available
  • NOT DIGITIZED
Wide Open Films Presents an Eric Simon film featuring the Men and Women of the 159th Aviation Brigade, 101st Airborne Division. “Desert Sky” a documentary. Music by Jimmy Dunn, Edited by Eric Simon and Robert Allison, Director of Photography Eric Simon, Executive Producer Dan Smith, written by Don Enevoldsen and Eric Simon, Produced and Directed by Eric Simon

DESERT SKY began when former Army Aviater Captain Eric Simon of the 159th Aviation Brigade arrived at Fort Campbell in February 2003 just two weeks before they shipped off to fight in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Taking his miniDV camera with him, Eric began shooting footage of the deployment and war whenever he could. When a helicopter crew from the brigade’s 5th Battalion was shot down north of Tikrit killing all 4 crewmembers and 2 passengers on board, Eric wanted their story to be told. A week later, two more helicopters collided over the city of Mosul raising their casualty toll to 12. The brigade would never be the same.

The Desert Sky Scholarship Foundation
Proceeds from the purchase of DESERT SKY will benefit a scholarship fund for children of soldiers killed in action while serving in the 159th Aviation Brigade during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
