Things Aren't Right by Tony Wright
The book describes what a fully loaded Huey was comprised of, the role of each of the four crew members, and most of Greene's missions. There is great honesty in the book and, if Greene doesn't recall the details of an event, he doesn't try to recreate it. He is modest in recounting what he did... I recommend this readable love letter to a combat helicopter written by a seemingly likeable, regular guy. - The VVA VeteranDuring Vietnam, the basic role of the USMC gunship squadrons was to protect the transport helicopters during medevac missions, troop insertions and extractions, resupply missions, and supporting the Marines on the ground during operations and patrols. Basically, whenever the Marines or South Vietnam friendlies got in trouble the gunships were dispatched to assist them.
As a gunner, and later crew chief, Pete Greene flew hundreds of missions on Huey gunships - flying practically every day with different pilots and gunners. In this vivid memoir he recalls many of those missions, including providing gunship support for MACV-SOG in and around I Corps area, working with Marine Recon, and undertaking frequent, perilous resupply and medevac and medevac support missions.
