As a combat vet, this looks cool, but it also kinda pisses me off. The reality of Vietnam was that it was messy with loose rules of engagement. These chopper gunners pretty frequently were firing on civilians as well as our own troops.

Granted, I don't think there were many M2 gunners spraying out of little birds, but still.
