Update on Herbert C Williamson III's Military Hero Claims


I obtained, via a Freedom of Information Act Request, information from the Connecticut National Guard on Mr. Williamson, who claims to have flown helicopters in Vietnam for a year, and to have received the Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medals, Purple Heart, and a Bronze Star or two. The NG records prove that he was a private in the Guard from 12 Mar 71 to 13 Aug 72, and under "combat-zone service" it says None. His MOS was Field Wireman. Maybe he flew those helicopters in Vietnam after he transferred to the Maryland National Guard.
