RATTIN, DENNIS MICHAEL Compiled by Task Force Omega Inc RATTIN, DENNISMICHAEL Name: Dennis MichaelRattin  Rank/Branch: StaffSergeant/US Army Unit: 131stAviation Company, nicknamed"Nighthawks 212th AviationBattalion, 16th AviationGroup Date of Birth: 15 July 1950(Kankakee, IL) Home of Record: Bradley, IL Date of Loss: 16 October 1969 Country of Loss: Laos LossCoordinates: 190000N 1033000E (UF380690) Clickcoordinates to view maps Status in 1973: Missing In Action Category: 4 Aircraft/Vehicle/Ground: OV1C"Mohawk" OtherPersonnel in Incident: LawrenceR. Booth (missing) REMARKS: SYNOPSIS: The Grumman OV1C Mohawk arrived in Vietnam in 1962 with various modelsserving continuously throughout the war. It became an increasinglyfamiliar sight from one end of Vietnam and Laos to the other. This twinengine aircraft washandy when only short, rough runways were available and ground unitsneededalmost instantaneous photo coverage. Gradually increasingly effectivesensorsand radar were produced including side-looking aerial radar (SLAR).Further,surveillance techniques using infrared detection equipment and aforward-aimedcamera proved especially useful since the communists relied heavily ondarknessto conceal their activities. The Mohawk also had the ability to carrybothoffensive armament and defensive weapons. This made the sturdy OV1C notonlyan excellent FAC and intelligence gathering aircraft, but one whichcouldgive close air support to ground troops in need of assistance.On 16 October 1969Capt. LawrenceR. Booth, pilot, and then Sgt. Dennis M. Rattin, technical observer,comprisedthe crew of an OV1C aircraft on a night reconnaissance mission enroutetothe Thai/Lao border. At 1730 hours, Capt. Booth made normal radiocontactwith base. At that time he reported the flight was progressingnormally.At 1815 hours, a Forward Air Control (FAC) aircraft requested a radiocheckfrom all aircraft in the area, but received no response from Capt.Boothor Sgt. Rattin. The next morning thecompany commander of the Nighthawks conducted an aerial reconnaissanceof the region. During this search, he saw what appeared to be aparachute hanging in the trees. Other members of their companycontinued the aerial search for a numberof days, but were unable to locate the Mohawk's wreckage or establishcontactwith either one of the downed crewmen. No ground search was possibledueto the heavy enemy troop concentration in the area. At the time theformalsearch was terminated, Lawrence Booth and Dennis Rattin were bothimmediatelylisted Missing in Action. The location of lossplaced them in rugged jungle-covered mountains approximately 3 milesnorthwest ofBan Hatham, 20 miles southeast of Moung Cha and 72 miles northeast ofVientiane,Bolikhamxai Province, Laos. Capt. Booth and Sgt.Rattin are among nearly 600 Americans who disappeared in Laos. Many ofthese men were known to be alive on the ground. The Laotians admittedholding "tens of tens" of American Prisoners of War, but these men werenever negotiated for either by direct negotiation between our countriesor through the Paris Peace Accords which ended the War in Vietnam sinceLaos was not a party tothat agreement. Since the end of theVietnam War well over 21,000 reports of American prisoners, missing andotherwise unaccounted for have been received by our government. Many ofthese reports document LIVE American Prisoners of War remaining captivethroughout Southeast Asia TODAY. Pilots and aircrews inVietnam and Laos were called upon to fly in many dangerouscircumstances, and they were prepared to be wounded, killed orcaptured. It probably never occurred to them that they could beabandoned by the country they so proudly served. |
