The symbol is standard for all military aircraft, regardless of service. The helicopter is an HH-65 Dolphin, painted in Coast Guard orange. Some other more knowledgeable Freeper may correct me if I'm wrong, but to my knowledge the Coast Guard is the only service that flies the HH-65.

But the paint scheme is the big giveaway.

Interesting. I was unaware that the winged-star was used by any service other than Air Force.

I believe you are right. The USCG is the only service to make use of the H65 Dolphin. They are the only ones that paint them orange, and they are the only ones to paint "U.S. Coast Guard" on them. (Look just above and behind the star symbol).

Beats me how A.P. could have missed that.
