Thank you my friend LTC Greg Henning for posting the documentary video on the history of air cavalry in the Vietnam War.
Airmobile operations were tested in the Vietnam War as a proof of principle in an operational environment. The central highlands and other areas of South Vietnam were foreboding because transportation infrastructure was insufficient to support an rapid response capability.
Using helicopters in an area where we had air superiority and the rugged terrain limited enemy use of ground to air capabilities [exceptions were in deliberate ambushes ]

We went in their blind and came out the same way, we won almost all the battles but still there was no victory, we had all the fire power but yet we could not stop the enemy!!
