Default Re: USMC Helicopters' ammo in Vietnam

The early "attack" helos generally had fairly low amounts of ammo. They were intended to make one, perhaps two, passes at a target.

The troop helos generally have a door gun operated by the crew chief, and should probably have 1) only one MG 2) more ammo.
