On the helo ride from the Port-au-Prince airport to the Petionville Country Club (where the 1-73rd was in control), we circled a few times, and this aircrewman waved and gave the thumbs-up...he turned and saw me watching, smiled, shouted "MY HOUSE!" and pointed at the side of his helmet. I never got his name, but I will remember the size of this Haitian Sailor's smile.
