Welcome Aboard! Helicopter Combat Support Squadron SEVEN served the Navy and the United States faithfully and honorably for seven years and ten months in the war to preserve the independence of the Republic of Vietnam. From North Sar (20N 107E) to South Sar (19N 106E) supporting the fleet aboard a variety of ships, from Combat to Supply Ships. In these pages you can learn about the squadron's participation in that war and the contributions of its officers and men.
This site is also dedicated to the families of the men who served so proudly in HC-7. These wives and families were in the unique position of often "standing alone" while their husbands and fathers rotated individually in and out of Det 101 - 115, Yankee Station and various small boys of the Seventh Fleet. These women did what had to be done, set the standard for the CAN DO model and managed to smile through their tears as they waited at home.
Read "Into the Night", the story of a Medal of Honor and "To Those Who Returned For Me" , a daring rescue of a downed airman 11 miles deep in North Vietnam. The squadron's PRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION is here, as well as other stories of valor and dedication.
