I remember both of these events. Petrucci was fined $500.00 ($250.00 for each shark) I was just numb about Sam's death, wasn't it just an engine or transmission failure which caused them to come down? I know he was killed by the main rotor during egress from the crash. I too am writing my memoirs of that time for my grandchildren and nephews. Please contact me. I was a gunner and crew chief for Nighthawk Sep70 to Sep71. I am trying to remember the date we were transferred to D Troop 1/1 Cav but we stayed in Chu Lai. Mario Cruz thinks it was after April of '71. Welcome Home.
