To handle his company's mission, Maj. Robert M. Stuart has 25 Huey helicopters. There are other aviation units supporting the ROKs and they are all typical of the 174th. Each week 174th helicopters average some 13,000 sorties. Besides the combat assault and resupply flights, they fly reconnaissance and liaison missions.
Most crew members agree that their toughest missions are the resupply flights in the mountains.
More so, they claim, than the combat assaults.
