Helicopter Crew
Members of the 308th Missile Support Aircraft Division (at the time, assigned to the 308th Missile Maintenance Squadron of the 308th Strategic Missile Wing) prepare to board their Bell UH-1F Huey helicopter; 1973. The Hueys arrived in 1970 to replace the H-19 Chickasaws. Helicopter operations supported the 308th Wing until the missiles were retired in 1987, and they served a dual air rescue mission throughout.
