Experimental helicopters existed in the 1920s. The first unit designated practical military helicopters used in combat was the Korean War (1950-53). Choppers as known today (being used everywhere all the time) came into existence in the 1960s during the Vietnam War...during this time frame Police, FBI, Sheriff Departments, Highway Patrol, Hospitals, etc. all began using the helicopter...in many cases surplus US Military birds from the Vietnam War.
