240th AHC
U.S. Army
The 240th Assault Helicopter Company (AHC), known as the "Greyhounds," was activated in 1966 during the Vietnam War. Based primarily at Bear Cat and later Long Binh, South Vietnam, the 240th AHC provided air assault, troop transport, and resupply missions in support of U.S. and allied forces. The unit operated UH-1 Iroquois "Huey" helicopters and was renowned for its courage under fire, frequently participating in intense combat operations. The 240th AHC was deactivated in 1972, having earned multiple commendations for its vital role in numerous major campaigns.
