I was a dental officer at Pleiku AB from June '67 to |
June '68 and did know Maj Armstrong. I can attest that |
he was a heroic A-1E pilot who had the "right stuff" and |
demonstrated raw courage on almost a daily basis. I was |
with the flight surgeon when we transported "Dutch" from |
the flight line to the 71st Evac Hosp-- he had just returned |
from a mission and had received a bullet wound in the calf |
muscle . He was sent home for a short period until it healed, |
then he returned to Pleiku for more action. |
Although I was not a close friend, I distinctly remember |
the day that he did not come back from his last mission. |
. |
Although he may never receive adequate recognition or |
appreciation for his loyal service, courageous actions and |
ultimate sacrifice for his country, Major Frank Armstrong |
(A-1E pilot) is an exemplary, unsung, American hero. |

This man, and others like him, should never be forgott |

This is an e-mail I received
from Hank Goetz (Captain USAF Retired) Hi…
My name is Hank Goetz (ex-F-100 & F-105 pilot) and I was one of
Dutch’s roommates back at Nellis AFB while we were all in F-100 training
(1960). Both Dutch and I were assigned to Ramstein AB, Germany although
to two different squadrons. We were both living in the BOQ at Ramstein
and were good friends. I knew his wife and just wanted to let you know I was fond of Dutch as most of us were. We all miss him. Hank (Capt. USAF & retired B-747 Captain for TWA) \ |
