define rescued

[Bill Rutledge]

By rescued i mean anyone, american or viet from any service that we Lifted  out of danger, medivaced or extracted while under attack,  I am not including the thousands upon thousands  we saved (rescued) by putting in strikes  

[Mike Dobson]

I'm with U Bill, I've seen it somewhere .... but I can't remember where ------ and it has to be either a shot in the dark, or there are a LOT that aren't listed ----- you know we did stuff on "one" that would never reach the statistic books, and I'm sure all the other dets did too ---- hmmmmmm where was that ?

Mike on that mission where u and dave smale jumped on a Sealords bird with your weapons and  and flew 7 or 8 missions under enemy fire tp rescue Viet troops getting their butts kicked. How many did you rescue that day , if i recall it was 70 or 80 ,, i believe Kid Purington and one of his pilots were wounded when putting in strikes and covering  your rescue sealord.
