SAN DIEGO A San Diego artist who dedicated his life to helping Vietnam veterans recover from PTSD passed away last week but his legacy is being honored.
Steve Maloney, 78, served in the Michigan National Guard alongside the troops who were deployed to Vietnam for the war. He spent the last nine years dedicating his life to his Take Me Home Huey project where he rebuilt the Huey 174 helicopter that was shot down in Vietnam on February 14, 1969 and turned it into a 47-foot art sculpture.
