Description
this fight helmet was in the UAA Kidd museum and I like the image a lot so before you all ask me of my new artvak i show it to you. This was on a Air Force pilot that was POW in viet nam . Not sure which one and here is a link to show the whole area. But i think this was in a diff deplay case by itself.

look at the The Louisiana Veterans Hall of Honor
on this page.
all I know is his plane blow up in mid air and he was taken to Hoa Lo Central Prison. Here they did not let the doctors see him intill many days and he had burns and a head injure. The doctors was mad at the Prison for they told the prison he could die. he was in prison for about six and halve years as a POW.
I just like this shot and the history behind it
