Ok. I have a story, i was in summer school, they only allow you 3 tardies, i had 2, but i woke up late(i was woken up by the fire alarms of the school) i had to get to school as soon as possible, so the moment that i step out the house i see a low flying (so low i could look at the pilot) huey playing fortunate son. So all you see is me sprinting to school among smoke and a huey playing fortunate son with the sound of the engine, and sirens( p.s. i was wearing aviators and a bomber jacket(i was also in ground school) which made me feel cool, even though i am well aware I'm not, it was the moment that was)

@@aj3751 we have flight helmets and our avianoics would make duel head sets so we can listen to music and chat without interference. Actually not too hard, they taught me.
I once volunteered at a veteran care home. I asked one of the vets about his time in ‘Nam, and he simply said, “You know what they don’t tell you at boot camp? When they got shot, they screamed. A lot. Then they go all quiet.”
I see a room full of greedy bastards calling the shots for hard working decent folks. That's what I see, how about you. I love my country, but I can't stand public servants who profit from political tenure
Whatisanickname ? As the A-10’s? They got eyes and teeth in some of them, and if I remember right, helicopter cavalry pilots has some exception from the uniform rules so they can paint that shit on there helmets, as long as it don’t cover up important stuff, even some A-10 pilots paints there helmets.
I lost a neighbor in Vietnam, Marine Paul Bragg and my brother-in-law Tom Folger, committed suicide over 40 years later partly due to PTSD. They were all heroes, all of them. And the music was part it all. May they rest in peace. God love 'em all! Jacque Lumb
I showed my grandpa this video. He really liked. He even said that the trees were speaking Vietnamese for some reason. Then he did a weird dance on the floor to this song. All in all, this is a good song to show your grandparents.

2 of my uncles and my uncles father are Vietnam War veterans. My uncles father served 28 years in the army and was a Colonel. Unfortunately he passed last year and I very briefly met him. My 2 uncles are still alive and I am thankful for their service for all 3 of them. It is so sad how many were treated when they got back cause many were drafted and you had no choice cause it was this or you wouldn't make it out alive and many are truly great people. I know a lot of veterans who served in all branches over there from Navy to ordinary infantry to even a good friend who was a sniper with the Marines. Though that war was pretty messed up, I don't hate the Americans who were there at all and I always tell them at least "Thank you for your service".
Part of the reason this song seems to "go" with the UH-1 is pretty subtle. Main rotor speed of these birds is ~320 RPM. Tempo of Fortunate Son is 128 BPM. This means the main rotor rotates 2.5 times for every beat of the music. In other words, you get 5 "slaps" for every beat.

Yes
Then ride a Huey gunship
WHO COMPLAINS ABOUT TOO MUCH TREES?
Because the girls know that charlie is in those trees man
We love our Nam Vets.
Thank you.
Thanks for clarifying with the title, for a minute I thought I was hearing the sound of a chopper in my head.
Imagine making a anti-war song only for it to become one of the most famous war songs,
When your farming and the sky starts roaring with the sound of 'murica
Ladies and gentlemen. ‘Murica has arrived no need to thank us.
Fire back a bit, and the cowards will soon run.
The power and the glory . . . love the Heuy rotor wash
SUCH A GREAT SONG.❤❤❤
Many good men died in this war that wasn't even theres.. but the Huey ❤
Historydiggerpat Huey served in Korea too
The Huey wasn't theirs either
Well you are obviously 12 years old by your lack of English comprehension and utterly stupid comment about a Huey
@@Mokujo No they didn't, not if you're talking about the Korean War.
"Bell developed the powerful helicopter in the 1950s and produced more than 16,000 between 1955 and 1976.

@@bernardoayres1139 I am highly against feminism, leftism cucks and all this kind of things, but this war is one of the stupidiest ever, I wish you fight in a war to see how good it is, specially if the war is in your country.
"Fortunate Son"
Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh, they're red, white and blue
And when the band plays "Hail To The Chief"
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord
It ain't me,
I ain't no senator's son, son
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord, don't they help themselves, oh
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yes
I ain't no millionaire's son, no, no
Yeah!
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask them, "How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer, "More! More! More!" Yo
I ain't no military son, son
I ain't no fortunate son, no no no
А теперь на русском
Некоторые люди рождаются с предназначением махать флагом
О, этот красный, белый и синий
И когда группа играет "Салют командиру"
О, они наводят орудие на тебя, Боже
Припев:
Это не я, это не я, я не сын никакого сенатора, нет
Это не я, это не я; я не не удачливый, нет
Некоторые люди рождаются с серебряной ложкой в руке
Боже, разве они не помогают себе, о
Но когда сборщик налогов стучит в дверь
Боже, дом похож на распродажу, да
Припев:
Это не я, это не я, я не сын никакого миллионера, нет
Это не я, это не я; я не не удачливый, нет
Некоторые люди наследуют глаза, украшенные звёздами
Ох, они посылают тебя на войну, Боже
И когда ты спрашиваешь их, "Сколько ещё людей мы должны потерять?"
О, они только отвечают "Больше! Больше! Больше!"
Припев:
Это не я, это не я, я не военный сын, нет
Это не я, это не я; я не не удачливый, нет
Припев:
Это не я, это не я, я не не удачливый, нет нет нет
Это не я, это не я, я не удачливый сын, нет нет нет
Thank you good sir
Thanks CCR! Brings back memories. Project Cohart
We getting out of Vietnam with this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯
To this day I have no clue how I could sit at the little fold down seat at the open door in full combat gear with a loose little canvas strap hanging to my knees as my only fall protection, and not fall the hell out. Even when I would look straight out and stare at the ground below... Amazing....
Damn
I'm with you on that one brother.
