- A 3 page hand written buddy letter dated 07 July 2010 from Jack Waterworth AX2 VW-1 1965 - 1967 to the VA
on behalf of Richard Rowan AG3 VW-1 1964 - 1966.
In this letter Jack verifies that he was with Richard in Vietnam while assigned to VW-1. He also relates how
one mission in particular affected him and other crewmen after they vectored in 3 rescue helos to bring back a
F4 crew who had bailed out of their plane. It apparently was a trap that resulted in the loss of all 4 crews
and aircraft.
Jack also recalls when VW-1 squadron members were hit with Agent Orange from a sprayer while performing a FOD
walk down at NAS Agana. Jack Waterworth's letter is available in our standard web-page format.
The 4th letter from the left is e-mails between Richard Rowan and Jamie Fox at the Department of the
