‘Bout time my beloved H60 community gets some respect!
The Bridges at Toko-Ri was a better movie and it had better stars, William Holden, Grace Kelly, Fredric March, Mickey Rooney
“Long in the shadow of the jet jockeys — no one has ever made a movie about the rotor-blade community with Tom Cruise...”
They say that like it’s a *bad* thing.
Btw, did you guys ever see that one Tom Cruise movie? You know, the one where he plays The Cocky Young Guy? ;-)

Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.
I was in an HSL squadron of H-2’s (pre H-60), as an Aviation Electrician. It was great duty. On detachment, it was one helo, 12-15 guys (including pilots) on a small ship (Fast Frigates). We were a close knit group, independent of ships company, so we didn’t stand ship-board watches, and when we hit port, we off-loaded to the nearest air station.
