Gonna get a bit crowded back on that ramp iddnit....M-2 Browning .50 Cal....a gunner...winch operator...and winchman...a casualty on a stretcher???

Ah...I forget...one swings the only Machine gun aside while doing winching.....in a hostile area with bad guys all around....now that is good thinking!



How does the CH-53E, MH-53 do that job?

Isn't it two door guns (Starboard side gun has to be swung aside)and a ramp gun while winching?

But then I forget.....tactics have changed since Vietnam....they always go where the bad guys aren't now days.
