Seeking opinions from the Army Aviation experts as to the exact location of this "Lower Four Club". Thanks!

Looks like it was in Yongsan, Korea

Great effort on your behalf in pinpointing this particular "Lower Four". That would date this lighter to the 1957-1965 period. I appreciate the input!

Did the First Cav even have helicopter assets prior to 1965?

Great question ottodog8! Another question: When was the 228th ASH Bn established? From what I can tell: 1965. Ist Cav was in RVN roughly1965-1972. Did they have a "Lower Four" in Vietnam? I suspect the lighter is from '65 or later. My previous "guesstimate" of back to 1957 would be to early. My focus has always been USAF/USN/USMC aviation. Let's hear from the Army Aviation experts! YK57

Thanks to Matt-M we know the 1st Cav had a "Lower Four" at Yongsan, Korea. Did they also have one at Ft. Benning just prior to Vietnam?  YK57
