Historic Old Bridge Plate from a 1908 demolished Iron Bridge in Missouir


Here is a treasure I picked up in the Lake of Ozark region in Missouri, a heavy cast iron bridge Plate (just one) and after some research I found out where the bridge was located and its complete history, it is a great site for bridge research or anyone who appreciates the construction of old bridges,     here is the web page that shows my bridge plate and best of all it has a picture of the bridge plate on the bridge prior to the bridge being demolished, just copy and paste  http://bridgehunter.com/mo/cooper/bryant-bottom/

Army Viet Nam Helicopter Tail Section Click Photo to See All 14 Photos

 
I think I have a OH-236 Raven my tail has ribs running down like this one, here is a pic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:OH-23_inflight_colour_photo.jpg My new question can anyone find any info on the history of my tail section,  I found an Army Incident Report for helicopter 67-16212
http://www.flyarmy.org/incident/690318031ACD.HTM
   I thought it might be my tailsection, is it  a coincidence that my tail numbers were the same except for the 67 prefix? the tail numbers on my tail is just 16212,  some people I have talked to think it is the same and the 67 is the year of the helicopter But isn't it strange my tail section has no year number?? I found some information some army helicopter pictures at http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/showthread.php?139418-Vietnam-War-Helicopter-Aviation-OH-6A-and-OH-58A
