Description: The 155th Aviation Company unit history states that while working with the CIDG, two gunship conducted a recon of the area around the LZ to be used for an insertion. About 500 meters from the LZ one ship received enemy fire. When the light gun team circled back, they observed two armed men scurrying through the bushes. They engaged in a rapid exchange of fire and gave the friendly patrol ample time to get to them before they could take the information they had observed to their superiors.
