More detail on this person: James Gersky and I
worked together in a Supply function at our unit.
Jim Gersky was the units Supply Officer and I was
the Tech Supply Specialist (SP5). Jim and I
served with the 21st Signal Group's Aviation
Detachment in Nha Trang, 68-69. Jim was an
excellent pilot, that I can attest to, he
successfully landed a Huey that had an engine
failure at 3,000 feet over An Khe in August of
1969. Jim and I perfected the art of getting
repair parts by means other the normal Supply
request format. We couldn't allow our birds to
remain on the tarmac while missions needed to be
run throughout our II Corp area in the Central
Highlands. This information was last updated 05/18/2016

I'm really sad to hear that he's been gone for 11
years. May he rest in peace.
