With the upswing of the Vietnam War, VMO-5 was reactivated on December 15, 1966, at Camp Pendleton and assigned to Marine Helicopter Training Group 30, 3d Marine Aircraft Wing. The aircraft assigned were the UH-1E “Huey” and the OV-10 “Bronco.” In July 1967, VMO-5 was reassigned to Marine Aircraft Group 56. The squadron was redesignated HML-267 in March 1968 and remained in combat readiness for the remainder of the war. In November 1971 the squadron was reorganized, resulting in HML-267 flying only UH-1E aircraft.
