Proud of my Service

Bill Geyer's favorite Vietnam duty was flying his Hughes OH-6 Cayuse "loach" helicopter, which he compares to a corvette. He was close with his fellow scouts while in country, and they've recently started having reunions. He has many fond memories of his service, but not of coming home.

The guys that served over there, they were amazing. And when they come home, they weren't treated very well.

Bill's story was captured with the help of TPT's Minnesota Remembers Vietnam team.
