A UH-34 Choctaw flies during the Ugly Angels Vietnam reunion in Inola, Oklahoma, Oct. 7, 2023. The YL-37 Foundation hosted current and former members of the VMM-362 “Ugly Angels” to honor the legacy of the UH-34 Choctaw and Marines of the Vietnam War. The Ugly Angels, flying the UH-34 Choctaw, were the first Marine aircraft unit in Southern Vietnam to support combat operations. Today, the Ugly Angels still provide aerial assault support across the globe, operating the MV-22B Osprey. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Lance Cpl. Jennifer Sanchez)
