Retired Army.  Vanity plate on the FRC says OH6A, the little bird I flew in Viet Nam.  Not everyone knows what it means; those who do are older than most.

Picture of OH-6A Cayuse light observation helicopterOH-6A Cayuse light observation helicopter

The Boeing (McDonnell Dougles) (formerly Hughes model 369A) OH-6A, was designed for use as a military scout during the Vietnam war to meet the U.S. Army's need for an extremely maneuverable light observation helicopter (LOH program). The Hughes OH-6A Cayuse was quite effective when teamed with the AH-1G Cobra attack helicopter as part of what were known as Pink Teams. The OH-6A Loach would find targets by flying low, "trolling" for fire, and lead in a Cobra, or Snake, to attack. The OH-6A could be armed with the M27 armament subsystem, the M134 six-barrel 7.62mm Minigun or the M129 40mm grenade launcher on the XM8 armament subsystem.

EH-6B, a previous version of the Little Bird, was used for command, control and radio relay.
