The 210th Aviation Battalion was a U.S. Army aviation unit activated during the Vietnam War era. Initially constituted in 1966, the battalion provided critical helicopter support, including troop transport, medevac, and logistical missions, primarily in the Republic of Vietnam. Operating under the 12th Aviation Group, the 210th supported major combat operations and contributed significantly to air mobility and battlefield effectiveness. The unit was inactivated after the war as part of the Army's post-conflict drawdown and restructuring.

The 25th Aviation Regiment, part of the 25th Infantry Division, was first constituted in 1957 and has played a vital role in U.S. Army aviation history. The unit saw extensive service during the Vietnam War, providing aerial support, reconnaissance, and troop transport in challenging environments. Over the decades, the 25th Aviation has continued to evolve, participating in major operations such as Operation Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Today, the regiment remains a key asset, delivering critical aviation capabilities for the 25th Infantry Division and supporting missions worldwide.
