          Membership Publications  The VHPA publishes six magazines, a membership directory and
          a calendar each year and periodically publishes historical reference
          directories, CD-ROMs and DVDs.  To contact the magazine editor aviator@vhpa.org.
  
         CD Directory to Stop - Because of decrease in demand and
          changing technology, the EC has elected to stop producing the
          membership directory CD after this year's issue (2020).  Most
          members are now switching to smart phones, tablets and laptops that do
          not have CD drives so there is no way to use a CD. Also the CD is
          obsolete as soon as it is produced while the online membership
          directory is updated daily and online has much more information than
          the CD. Our web sites are being redesigned to accommodate this massive
          move to portable technology making it even easier to access membership
          information with any device that can connect with the Internet. The
          deadline for ordering a 2020 membership directory CD is September 1st
          with delivery in October.

they rest in peace. Helicopters were used in nearly all combat operations. Many of these, along
with other historical events, can be found by following date ranges located on the 
KIA panels.  In order to free up space in the annual membership directory, the
