The 187th Assault Helicopter Company, known as the "Blackhawks," was activated in Vietnam in 1966 and served with distinction throughout the Vietnam War. Equipped primarily with UH-1 Huey helicopters, the unit provided critical air assault, resupply, medevac, and troop transport missions in support of U.S. and allied forces. The 187th participated in major operations such as the Tet Offensive and Lam Son 719, often flying in hazardous conditions under enemy fire. The company earned multiple commendations for its valor and professionalism before being deactivated following the U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam in 1972.
