The Sharks/Dolphins of the 174th AHC flew in VN for many years, here is a potted history if you are interested (also most other AHCs..)

That site gives a good overview of VN Hueys, I really find it interesting
That Huey site is great, thanks! I had decided on the HH1004 as you suggested until a new HH1001 showed up on Ebay that I couldn't pass up since it ended up costing me $80 USD including shipping thanks to a 20% off Ebay/PaPal coupon that I had to use or it would expire. Not a great price but pretty decent compared to what these HM Hueys seem to go for these days.
