The 61st Assault Helicopter Company (AHC), known as the "Lucky Stars," was an aviation unit of the United States Army that served with distinction during the Vietnam War. Activated in 1967, the 61st AHC was primarily tasked with providing air assault, troop transport, and resupply missions in support of U.S. and allied ground forces. Operating UH-1 "Huey" helicopters, the unit was involved in numerous combat operations, often facing intense enemy fire and challenging flying conditions. The 61st AHC was deactivated following the drawdown of U.S. forces in Vietnam, but its legacy lives on through the bravery and service of its personnel.
