Bragg late 86ish-90ish and went to fly MH-60s from there. I'll have to ask about the specifics, all I know is he is a stud

Correct, he was TF118 as well and flew Prime Chance in the late 80s.

CFII, where is this video from, Alaska?

Makes me homesick.  Both for the cockpit and Alaska.

Facebook has a group called "Task Force 118, 4/17 Cav & 4/2 ACR (OperationPrim Chance)'

There is a lot of good information, old pics of the guys in the Task Force and follow-on units, also some good videos.  A good history on how the Army came to use armed D models.

Even I'm in there

Wikipedia has an article on Prime Chance with a side article on the OH58 to include TF118.

Enjoy
