If he was 80 years old when he died in 2008, he would have had to be around 40 years old in 1967. Kind of old for a Captain chopper pilot in Viet Nam in 1967, but I guess it's possible. I was a Captain in 1967 in Viet Nam. I was only 28 and a bit old for my rank (had some enlisted time).

I suspect he was closer to 70 than 80.
