Colonel Raymond Nutter was one of the most highly decorated soldiers of the Vietnam War. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross (second only to the Medal of Honor) for leading his downed crew in one of the most fantastic escapes of the Vietnam War. Nutter was also awarded the Silver Star, the Legion of Merit, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Soldiers Medal, the Bronze Star, the Purple Heart, the Meritorious Service Medal, and the Air Medal.  During his distinguished Army career, Colonel Nutter served as a Senior Aviator, Helicopter Pilot, Gunship Pilot, Master Parachutist, Battalion Commander, and senior advisor to the Kentucky National Guard.  This Bell UH-1 helicopter, through the authorization of the National Museum of the United States Air Force, is painted to represent the aircraft he flew.
