This
site is dedicated to personnel who supported and flew the
Forward Air Controller mission, during the war in Southeast
Asia and to those who are interested in that mission.
It serves as a rallying point and a depository for their
stories and their legacy. They represent several
countries, different branches of service, a variety of
aircraft, and all ranks from the lowest to the
highest.
It was a chancy mission, many gave all, yet the job
satisfaction was through the overhead. We welcome all
those interested in the mission and the experiences of the
Forward Air Controllers. We are glad you are here.

One
More Roll
"We toast our hearty
comrades,
now
fallen from the sky,
Were
gently caught by
God’s
own hand
to
reign with him on high.
To
dwell among the soaring
clouds
they knew so well before,
From
Victory Roll to Tailchase
at
heaven’s very door.
Now,
as we fly among them
there,
we sadly hear their plea,
Take
care, my friend,
Watch
your Six…
And do
one more roll for me."
Commander
Gerald L. "Jerry" Coffee
