Why Being a Door Gunner in Vietnam Was a Death Sentence | Sleepless Veteran

This video reveals why being a door gunner in Vietnam was one of the most suicidal roles of the entire war. It follows the men who flew just a hundred feet above the jungle, completely exposed, strapped to the side of a helicopter with nothing but an M60 between them and death. Every mission meant facing enemy gunfire, RPGs, and anti-aircraft rounds with no armor and nowhere to hide. The story shows the fear, chaos, and raw courage of those who fought from the most dangerous seat in the sky — the men who knew that each takeoff could be their last. 0:00 - Opening 01:57 - The Sound of Rotors 10:10 - Arrival — The First Week 19:55 - The Aircraft and the Altitude 28:00 - The First Mission 51:19 - The Threats Below 01:02:54 - The Missions Accumulate 01:11:59 - The Rhythm of Twelve Months 01:25:35 - When the Statistics Find You 01:34:50 - The Last Missions 01:47:31 - The Sound That Follows 01:57:48 - What Remains in Memory 02:07:32 - The Ones Who Didn't Make It 02:20:33 - Outro
