| In the 1968 John Wayne movie "The Green Berets", there's a scene at the end of the film where a captured NVA officer is taken out of the jungle using a similiar type of equipment with a C-130. FF to around the 7 minute mark of the video and you'll see it. YouTube - The Green Berets starring John Wayne part 15 of 16 TO
