  1. Great guy! Served as his escort here at Benning and he was awesome. Took me to breakfast and full of great stories!

  2. Was the same air crew with him the whole time? Were they awarded if so what medal or medals. In my squadron the crew chief stayed with his helo, we would change everybody but the c/c.Does the Army assign their C?C to a helo or a set of pilots?

  3. His wingman, “Too Tall” was awarded the Medal a couple years before him. The rest of his crew, I’m not sure what they got but not the Medal.

  4. Had the privilege of meeting Col Crandall, our post hosted a dinner in his honor after he received the MOH.
