03 June 2003 In Loving Memory of my Uncle Dave You are forever in my thoughts. I only wish I had gotten the chance to know you. For Always, Your niece, Beth A Nazeck bapfeiffer@mpsomaha.org

 

20 Sep 2005 Although I grieved over your loss a number of years after you passed, I grew to be a much stronger person over the years. One never knows what a loss like this can do to a person. I routinely thank all who have served or continue to serve this great nation and pray regularly for them, wishing them a safe return to their families. From his nephew, Jeff E-mail address is not available.

 

A Note from The Virtual Wall On 23 Feb 1970, the 155th Assault Helicopter Company was tasked to provide airlift for a practice troop insertion by the ARVN ranger training group at Nha Trang. UH-1C tail number 66-00518 was the trailing aircraft during the insertion. Unfortunately, the training exercise became all too real when 518 was shot down 22 miles southwest of Nha Trang, killing its four-man crew: WO1 Paul Edward Dolik, pilot; WO1 Joseph Frank Erickson, pilot; SP5 David Joseph Nachtigall, crew chief; and SP4 Calvin Ernesto Serain, gunner.
