McCutcheon Hall Station BEQ dedicated Wednesday

Barracks 1633, now McCutcheon Hall, was formally dedicated in honor of Major General Keith Barr McCutcheon Wednesday mlitning during a station formation.

Maj. Gen. McCutcheon was born August 10, 1915 and died July 13, 1971 of cancer. He was commissioned a second lieutenant in August 1937 and became a naval aviator in 1940. In September 1944, as a lieutenant colonel, departed for the Pacific area to serve as opera- tions officer of Marine Aircraft Group (MAG)-24 at Bou- gainville and at Luzon and Mindanao in the Philippine Islands

In July 1950 tie became the commanding officer of Marine Helicopter Squadron (HMX)-1 which was the Marine Corps' only helicopter squadron at that time and today is known as the Presidential Helicopter Squadron.

Reaching the rank of brigadier general in March 1962, he became commander of the 1st Marine Brigade and later served as assistant chief of staff for operations on the staff of Commander-in-Chief Pacific (CINCPAC)

HQMC reviews overseas tour assignments; policy changes implemented to reduce turbulence

ment. This ultimately results in reduced skill levels within the affected overseas based commands.

This topic recently received extensive review by Headquarters Marine Corps resulting in a change in policy being directed by CMC. Specific details are contained in ALMAR 106/78.

The basic changes which are covered in the message are a group of incentives which ease the problems of family separations. Accord- ing to the message, the incentives are designed to further the mutually compatible objectives of reducing personnel turbulence, increasing family stability and improving con- tinuity in WestPac commands.

New policies include: Over 100 accompanied tour billets have

been added bringing the total available slots to nearly 900. These now include assignments with III Marine Amphibious Force head- quarters, 3d Marine Division and 1st Marine Aircraft Wing.

Personnel who serve accompanied tours on Okinawa or at Iwakuni, Japan will be assigned a new overseas control date upon completion of their tour.

Those assigned to an accompanied tour billet who elect the "All Others" tour and have a mature overseas control date may be assigned directly to an unaccompanied tour following the "All Others" tour.

Those Marines who are not entitled to an accompanied tour due to rank or longevity restrictions will serve an all others tour and be assigned an overseas -control date upon completion of that tour.

Authorized personnel who are serving on unaccompanied tours who request a follow- on accompanied tour at the same locale, will, after approval by HQMC, be immediately granted command sponsorship of dependents including transportation, housing and other standard benefits. In this case the sponsor's total overseas tour length would be four years commencing from the date which he or she departed the United States.

Personnel serving in a designated West- Pac accompanied billet may be reassign'ed to another billet within the same Monitored Command Code (MCC) by the local com- mander in order to promote professional growth or to satisfy a need of the unit.

The Marine Corps policy changes make it easier for Marine families to serve together on Okinawa.

Mounting up and moving out

Marines test 'Mechanized Task Force' concept The Corps' traditional straight

legged infantry is "mounting up and moving out" with a concept known as the "Mechanized Task Force'.

In preparation for testing this concept, more than 3,500 Marines have been training at the Marine Corps Air/Ground Com- bat Training Center at Twentynine Palms. Calif., for the past several months. The primary purpose of the test is to determine the Marine Corps' capabilty to operate in a mechanized environment. The test is tentatively scheduled for a November-December time frame. The results may establish future mechanized doctrine that can be applied to all Marine amphibious forces (MAF).

The Mechanized Task Force, with maneuver elements corn-

prised of tanks combined with infantry in amphibious tractors, centers around task organization from existing assets within a MAF. Task organization is the grouping of equipment and manpower from various units to meet a specific mission or situation.

VIOth the increased technology, "lethilfity and mobility of the mod- ern battlefield in mind, a review of existing doctrine was conducted. As a result, a fresh and updated overview for a mechanized opera- tion concept is being evaluated.

The test concept, however, will in no way end the Corps' role and primary mission of seizing a beach head. It is intended to enhance the accomplishment of that mission, with the support of aircraft and artillery, A mechanized force, possessing more speed and mobil- .

ity than straight infantry, would be able to land and rapidly strike inland, reducing the congestion of friendly forces on the beach head. Once ashore, Marines would live in and fight from those vehicles, melded into tractor teams.

The training center had con- ducted two phases of preliminary evaluation to determine the sup- port required and feasibility of this concept. The first phase involved approximately 700 Marines in a two-day, company-level com- bined arms team training exer- cise. With about 50 tracked vehicles, they traversed 50 miles of desert terrain conducting var- ious techniques, maneuvers and tactics of mechanized operations.

Phase II followed with an aggressed, three-day assault covering 60 miles. It was con-

ducted at the battalion level, with Marines participating primarily from 1st Battalion, 4th Marines and 3rd Tank Battalion, aug- mpntad with detachments from lft Force Service Support Group, 1st Marine Division and 3rd Marine Air Wing.

The training center will conduct their actual test at the regimental level, using forces designated by the commanding general, Fleet Marine Forces, Pacific, The Marine Corps Development and Education Command at Quan- two, Va. will process and evaluate the data collected.

Is the Mechanized Task Force concept feasible? That will be decided when all the facts are in. However, an anonymous rifleman was heard to say, "it sure beats the hell out of walking "'

Out of 73 rank-eligible corpsmen, 63 received promotions. Seven others were awarded good conduct medals.

"This is by far the highest promotion per- centage (714°0 of any naval unit on this island. It is likewise, exceptionally high Navy-wide." informed Chief P,etty Officer Charles Meeds. career counselor.

"The main reason for the excellent results." continued the chief, "is our unit's active and enthusiastic in-service training program."

"Promotions don't come that easy for the corpsmen." explains Petty Officer in charge

of Training. Hospital Corpsman First ('lass John Walden. "Several medical. military and leadership courses must be taken to prepare for each promotion exam. Even if they pass the test, it does not ensure promotion, as quotas and competition are Navy-wide."

According to Commander Maltk Abbott. .Ist Marine Brigade surgeon. "the results speak for themselves . . the icorpsmen deserve every pat on the back they get."

SAR team saves lives; protects North Oahu

story and photos by CA Richard MacDonald

Monday. July 10, 1978. is what Station Operation and Maintenance Squadron (SOMS) Search and Rescue (SAR) teamts all about.

"During the course of this day," stated Gunnery Sergeant Ed Hanson in a SOMS newshrief, SAR rescue copier, 'Pedro,' was launched on three separate emergen- cies. First, there was a CH-53 Sea Stallion in trouble. and then an A-4 Skyhawk."

"The third time was for a swimmer in trouble about 300 yards off the ocean side of Flat Rock in Kailua Bay. Captain Tom Giese. the duty SAR pilot: Captain Steve Hibbens. copilot: Sergeant John Amoro- sano. crew chief: and Staff Sergeant Charles Maygren, duty swimmer, launched 'Pedro': located the stricken swimmer and quickly made a successful water pickup."

"Se% eral factors contributed to the mission's lifesaving accomplishment." con- tained GySgt. Hanson. "all of equal importance were an 'up' aircraft, a wen- t tamed crew and the victim's friend knew a hi) to call."

SAR crews stand by. round-the clock. ready to come to the aid of anyone and any %chicle in water distress. SAR teams are specifically charged with maintaining rescue capabilities for the entire northern side of Oahu. Launched in conjunction with the SAR bird. "Pedro". is "Sapphire". the Navy crashboat and crew.

States SAR Officer Capt. Hibbens. "The Navy crashboats are always right there with us. even on training exercises. We keep in constant radio communication with the boats, which in effect, provide us with a more complete rescue team."

SAR teams consist basically of two pilots. a crew chief. SAR swimmer and a corps- man. Each of these men play a most important role and train constantly for

better efficiency and coordination. As SAR Officer Capt. Hibbens explained, "Coor- dination is the absolute. key to our mission's success. In order to attain a high level of pro- ficiency, we train over and over, striving con- tinually to improve our rescue techniques."

SAR swimmers are sent to a month long school in San Diego and then, at SOMS, must complete 65 hours of classroom and 87 hours of practical application covering: the CH-46, survival equipment, signaling devices, first aid. ocean swimming, hcli- pickups and water entries.

"The majority of our crew chiefs start out as SAR swimmers." informed Staff Ser- geant Ben Chapman. SOMS maintenance control chief. "If they are motivated enough they can then go on to become crew chiefs. I-his gives the Marines a lot to strive for."

With last month\ addition of another CH-46. SOMS now has tour SAR birds. Each is especially equipped with two hoists. stretchers. swimming gear, flares, first aid equipment. salciy lights and other rescue esourees.

According to Capt. Hibbens. -A water- tight dam in the rear of the SOMS SAR craft enables them to set down on water. SAR birds are unique also in that they are equipped with a device, called a 'Doppler.' which once the pilot locks the rescue copier onto its target, it will show him if the bird is

drifting away. Even more advanced is the *Coupler Doppler which allows the crew chief to make the same correction from his more direct view directly above the target in the rescue port hole. SOMS' SAR birds are the first CH-46s to utilize this advanced doppler system."

I he SA R's specialized CH-46s and highly trained Marines, along with the Navy rescue boats, provide a most vital water rescue team. The final testimony as to the value and efficiency of this team could hest be given by the Kailua man who is still alive today because SOMS SAR was ready!

LOAD EM UPI - Soldiers from Schofield Barracks enter five Marine LVTP-7s from Kaneohe last Wednesday in amphibious assault exercises held at Bellows Beach training area. The train- ing was preparation for an upcoming task force exercise for the more than 200 troopers from "C" Company, 1st Batta- lion, 35th Regiment, 25th Army Infantry Division.

Army hits the surf via Nay Marine amphibious tr,ors Story and photos by Cpl. Richard MacDonald

Storming the shores of Bellows Beach training area in thundering Marine amphibians from Kaneohe was indeed a new experience for the more than 200 soldiers from "C" Company, 1st Battalion, 35th Regi- ment, 25th Army Infantry Division Wednesday, July 19.

Supplying the rides, the vehicles and the operational guidance for this joint Army/Marine exercise were Marines from "0" Company, 3d Assault Amphibian Battalion, 1st Marine Brigade.

Before boarding the LVTP-7s, the Army troopers were briefed on the mechanics of the amphibious vehicle, emergency evacuation pro- cedures, safety, thy life vest and the mission itself.

Utilizing five LVTP-7s for the assault and one for emergency backup, "C" Company was split into two assault groups. The vehicles were then boarded and, in single file, splashed into the surf. Once 300-400 yards from shore the "amphibs" circled into an assembly area. They then filed off into an ssault column paralleling the beach.

About 150 yards from shore and on line, the crews closed their hatches and began the accelerated assault. Crashing onto the beach, the amphibs dropped their ramps and out charged the Army infantrymen, scurrying to attain their assigned beach objectives.

Lieutenant Kim Keith, 2d platoon commander for the "D" Company Marines, directed the assault. Both he and Captain Stephen Lewis, company commander of the Army troopers agreed, "The joint exercise went smoothly."

Captain Lewis explained, "The purpose of the training was to familiarize the troops with amphibious vehicles and their operation. We are preparing for an upcoming task force exercise where again we will will be working with the Marines in amphibious beach assaults."

There was another benefit to the interservice exercise which became apparent as the Army buSes pulled away from the scene. Several Army soldiers waved and voiced "thanks" to the bystanding Marines. The Marines responded enthusiastically and waved back.

Middies end K-Bay training hor the past month. 25 midshipmen (rum thel).S. Naval Academy at Annapolis have been

aboard the air station, getting a first hand look at the Marine Corps. Based on other visits of middies here. many of these future officers will choose to be commissioned in the Corps upon graduation next year.

One of the reasons K -Bay was selected as a showplace for the Marine Corps to midshipmen is the uniqueness of the air ground team which is based here. As in pass years. the academy students divided their stay with the 1st Marine Brigade between the infantry regiment and the air group.

On the aviation side, the training included hack seat time in an F-4.1 Phantom with one of Marine Aircraft Group (MAGI -24's fighter squadrons and also familiarisation and flight time in the MA(i's CH-53D. CH-461) and 1/H IN helicopters. Die middies also trained. in E-4.I simulators and received ejection seat and pressure chamber training at Barbers Point Naval Air Station.

During their tour with the 3d Marine Regiment, the midshipmen who were with Company A. 3d Recon, learned the art of rappelling and high speed water recovery, as well as water survival. other middies learned about the regiment's brass firepower (rum the ;millers men of the 1st

Battalion. 12th Marines. Many had the opportunity to get in some stick time in the amphibious metal monsters of Company D. 3d Assault Amphibian Battalion.

The midshipmen also visited the target isle of Kahoolawe for a look at the Corps' latest tank killer, the Dragon missile. Other less exciting but essential facets of Marine Corps life which the middies were exposed to included inspections, watchstanding and the inevitable administrative work required in a typical day in the Corps.

In addition to the hands-on training provided by the Brigade, the midshipmen toured the air station and received a briefing on its many facilities and services provided to tenant units.

As the midshipmen depart Hawaii Sunday, we hope they will take with them a positive impres- sion of the Corps and a better understanding of our mission as well of some of the island's aloha

NOW THIS GOES HERE - Dick Swaik, a General Electric engine repre- sentative. helps Corporal Dennis Biles, a J79 jet engine mechanic with Headquarters and Maintenance Squadron-24, with some technical problems on the J79 engine. Swails, the oldest technical representative here. has flown more than 250 types of aircraft and once owned his own airline.

Tech reps Experts help out with aircraft intricacies

What happens when a problem or question comes up on an F-4 jet or CH-53 helicopter that a Marine doesn't have the in-depth knowledge to answer? A technical representative is called in.

there are 21 technical representatives aboard the station, with specialties ranging from logistical supply to radar for the F-4. These men are seldom noticed and few Marines outside of the air group probably know of their existence.

A technical representative is just that. He is repre- senting his particular company and is a technical expert on that engine or equipment. McDonnell Douglas. Westinghouse. Bell Helicopter, and Boeing Vertol these are just a few of the companies that manufacture engines and parts for the various air- craft and equipment aboard the air station here.

One of the better known jobs of technical repre- sentatives is the Integrated Weapons Systems Review 11WSR). An IWSR is held for jet squadrons prior to their deployment. During this time technical repre- sentatives give instructions on checking and main- taining systems of the aircraft.

the purpose of the IWSR is to make the squadron as self-sufficient as possible while on deployment by upgrading the training of the men in that squadron. technical representatives train a nucleus of Marines who will pass on their training to fellow Marines while on deployment.

helicopteN, is a (iHSR, or a Comprehensive Heli- copter Systems Review.

Technical representatives can be found at any Navy or Marine Corps installation that has an aircraft con- tingent. Like the military, they receive orders to various places around the globe for a set tour.

Five of the 21 representatives here are civil service, including one secretary, and 17 are contractor representatives. They are all under the guidance of Master Sergeant W.L. Patterson, who coordinates all incoming work and reports on each representative's proficiency.

"All the 'tech reps' on this base do° outstanding work." said MSgt. Patterson. "They are all hard work- ing and conscientious and very much aware of the problems that can be encountered on a military installation."

In most cases, the technical representatives are

able to 'handle any problem which may arise Occasionally though. they send for a technical repre- sentative from another base. They stay until the job is

finished then return to their home base. 'technical representatives arc extensively trained in

their specialties. but this doesn't stop once they are out in the field. -there are a variety of schools available to them to further their expertise and training.

Yes. Marines take care of their own, but in case of a problem on a piece of technical equipment. they get a little help from the technical representatives behind the scenes. .

CONCENTRATION - Raymond Rodriguez goes through a mental excercise over his chess board, as some of the trophies he has won in Hawaii fill the backgournd.

Camp Smith marksmen excelled in the FMFPac Intra- mural Rifle and Pistol Matches held at Camp Smith's Puuloa Range July 7-14. They won two of the three team shooting trophies, and also collected six of the 11 individual marksmanship trophies.

Lieutenant Colonel W.D. Sey- mour, camp commander, Camp H.M. Smith, presented trophies to the victors.

Trophies for the best rifle team. went to the Camp Smith team, which scored 1109-47. Team members were Warrant Officer Patrick Leach, SSgt. Harry Brown, Corporals Warren Reynolds, Wayne Moore, and Lance Cor- poral Ernest Taylor.

A score of 400 on the combat infantry course netted the second team trophy for the Camp Smith

Rodriguez makes move By SSgt.114. J. Ceasar

When Raymond Rodriguez starts talking about his favorite pastime, you might be inclined to listen. That's if you're interested in chess. For in this gentleman's game, Corporal Rodriguez is more than a serious contender - he's a winner.

The 23-year-old Cuban, who grew up in New York, has already won six trophies here in Hawaii while demonstrating his skill on the chess board.

Rodriguez, who is currently an accountant for the Camp Smith Comptroller's office, explained that while in elementary school his special interest-in chess drove him to seek out every chess book for kids that he could find.

As his fascination for the game became more intense, the books he studied became more sophis- ticated. He began studying chess books written in French, Ger- man, English and Spanish.

CHESS EDUCATION

According to the young Marine his education in chess did not stop with reading. He has also increased his skill from wiltching, and playing against more experi- enced players.

The reservoir of combined knowledge and experience that Rodriguez gained in chess prior to high school, became assets once he arrived there. He learned of the school's chess team and embarked upon what he describes as "a career in chess."

"To begin with," he explained, "I had to play all the members of

the team so it could be deter- Mined where I ranked among them. At that time the captain of the team was a senior, who happened to be of Russian des- cent. The Russians," Rodriguez included, "produce very good chess players, and have the largest chess club in the world - the Moscow Central Chess Club, which I visited in 1974."

While in high school, Rodriguez was selected as team captain of his chess group. He led his team to first place in several tourna- ments and as a result of his efforts earned the school's 'Most Valu- able Player' chess trophy, for four consecutive years.

After high school, Rodriguez worked full time as a bank teller and accountant. He became involved in the banker's chess league and eventually was recog- nized as his team's leading player.

Rodriguez, toting his chess board along, enlisted in the Corps in 1976. From recruit training he was assigned duty here where he is distinguishing himself as a top chess player.

He participated in this year's Oahu All-Marine Chess Tourna- ment at Kaneohe Bay, June 17 and 18, and captured the title undefeated.

Rodriguez's ambition at present is to win the State's chess championship title during his Hawaiian tour.

It's possible 'that we're watch- ing the rise of a nationally recogn- ized chess player. If so, people will be listening very attentively when Raymond Rodriguez starts talk- ing about chess.

riflemen. Team members were SSgt. George Greathouse and Corporals Warren Reynolds, Wayne Moore, and Edward Swift.

In the individual rifle competi- tion category, SSgt. Brown placed first with a score of 547-27. Cpl. Moore placed second with 546- 27.

Marine Barracks dominated the individual pistol competition.

First Lieutenant Lee Wood placed first with a 549-6 score, Lance Corporal Steven Bakeman scored 525-6 for second place and Gunnery Sergeant Thomas McClausland placed third with a score of 487-3.

Camp Smith Marines regained the lead by capturing the top three combined rifle and pistol positions.

Other participants in the match were 2d Battalion, 3d Marines, winners of the team pistol trophy; 1st Radio Battalion, and 3d Assault Amphibian Bartairon.

Brigade takes softball championship It was a week-long battle filled with

excitement and close calls and plenty of runs. Six teams were given the opportunity to pit their defenses, strategies and scoring power against each other in quest of the championship title. Only one team would reign as champ.

Headquarters Company, Brigade decided that the title was theirs and proved their point in the final game of the Intramural Slowpitch Softball Championship at Pollock Field on Saturday.

First Radio Battalion was the only team left who could stop HqCoBde's unblemished winning record during the tournament. However the Brig- ade was out for the title, and Satur- day's 12-5 victory over 1stRadEln granted the Brigade's wishes.

This double elimination tourney began Monday, July 17. The two top finishers during the regular season from each division were selected to compete in the championship series. From Division I it was Marine Air Base Squadron (MABS)-24 finishing in first place with an 11 and 3 record and 786 team average, followed by second place Marine Heavy Helicop-

ter (HMH)-463 with a 10 and 3 record and .714 average. Radio Battalion took first place in Division II at 9 and 2 and an .818 average, followed in second by Navy's 7 and 4 record and .769 average. The two teams from Division III were Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA)-235 in first place at 10 and 3 and .769 average. Then HqCoBde, who tied with VMFA- 235 for first place with the same record.

Although the Brigade's final vic- tory for the championship title had them leading by seven runs, the score was not indicative of an easy win, and neither were the team's pre- vious victories.

As a matter of fact, the Brigade's first match was taken by only one run against HMH-463. HMH-463 jumped into the lead in the first inning at 4-0. However, their biggest lead came in the third inning at 8-2. Brigade tied the score in the fifth, only to fall short in the sixth at 11-10 But in the final inning the Brigade batters knocked off five runs, compared to three runs by HMH-463, for the 15-14 win.

The Brigade's biggest kill during the tourney was against MABS-24

Brigade batters punctured MABS-24 for runs in every inning except the last. But this is not to say that MABS- 24 didn't put up a fight. MABS-24 had the lead through the first three innings. However, from then on came the Brigade scoring onslaught. In the next three innings the Brigade batted in a total of 18 runs, bringing their final score to 24-14.

Game three was against the Navy, who was the only team to keep the Brigade from going into double figures in the runs department. Brig- ade scored four runs in the first inning, which was enough to win the game, as Navy mustered up only two runs during the entire match. From then on the Brigade scored five more runs for the 9-2 victory. 4

The final match of the champion- ship was in no way an easy victory. Although, the Brigade did win by seven runs over 1st RadBn. Radio, Battalion gave the Brigade one of their toughest matches ever, forcing the game into extra innings at 5-5 But in the eighth inning the Brigade reached down deep for all its worth and answered back with seven runs for their 12-5 championship title win

Sports cast

Well, I don't know if you jocks were listening to me last week concerning the flag football sea- son. So if you missed it, here's the scoop. The Intramural Flag Foot- ball season will commence dur- ing the month of September. It is imperative that all unit special ser- vices officers notify the athletic department at 257-3108/3135 of their intentions concerning flag football. The league structure will depend on the number of entries from the commands. A meeting for all unit special services officers and/or representatives will be held in the Family Theater lobby, at 10 a.m., August 2.

For you volleyball players, here's something of interest. Intramural volleyball will commence August 28. All games will be played at the station gym, hangar 103. A meet- ing will be held for all unit repre- sentatives at the Family Theater August 14 at 1:30 p.m. It is strongly suggested that team rosters be available for Special Services' use at this time Entry forms are available at Special Ser- vices Units may field more than one team.

Soccer players, have I got a deal for you Practice sessions have started for the Kaneohe Bay Marine soccer team. The team is getting ready for the upcoming season in the Honolulu Soccer League. Practices are held every Monday and Wednesday at Pop Warner football field at 5 p.m There are still openings for the club. interested personnel should contact Capt. Houston at 257- 3248.

Congratulations are in store for the team of T.E. Rollins, E.F. Mk- rut, R.S. Padgett, J R. Covella Jr and J. Aguilar. The team repre- senting Headquarters and Main- tenance Squadron (H&MS)-24 dad their thing by capturing the Intramural Golf Championship July 5.

Say, how many of Marines out there can run three miles in less than 18 minutes. If you can, then check this out Midshipman First Class Mark Stevenson recently competed in the Hawaiian AAU 10,000 meter Championship.

Stevenson completed the 6.2 mile course in 33 minutes. His time was good enough for first place in the junior division. How- ever, he came in third overall.

This championship wasn't the only competition that was going to

'see the fast feet of the midship- man. Stevenson, who is ranked in the top ten junior division mara- thon runners in the nation, showed his speed in a one hour race held at the University of Hawaii track over the weekend. In that period of time, the midship- man covered a distance of 11 miles and 200 yards.

SUCCESSFUL JUMPERS - Members of the Kaneohe Marine Sport Parachute Club, along with their helicopter crew, pose for a team photo after completing their 11-man link up.

Jumpers unite for badge The Kaneohe Marine Sport Parachute Club successfully qualified for

the 10-man military patch completing a difficult 11-man linkup at Bark- ing Sands, Kauai, July 1.

The team, which was on the Garden Isle for a Kehaka demonstration, completed the linkup and held it for 20 seconds high above the Pacific Missile Range Facility. The team only had to hold the formation five seconds to qualify for the patch which is presented by the Bob Buquor Memorial Award Association, Bakersfield, Calif.

This was the seventh attempt for the 10-man qualification and Arthur Ybarra, president, praised the teamwork and their flight crew from Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron-165.

Commenting on the successful link-up, Ybarra said it is an extra- ordinary achievement when you consider the men are falling at about 120 m.p.h. "Just one push or little bump and it all goes," he says.

Members of the club in the formation were: Ybarra, Daniel Smith, Carl Phillips, Marshall Hager, Jack Damoth, Arnold Lindley, Robert Suchke, Josie Burnett, Daniel Kinzley, Charles Knaebel and Patrick Tominey. The pilots and crew chief from the CH-46 helicopter were Captain Brad McCanna, First Lieutenant Frank Welborn and Sergeant Rob Aebly.

The club will be starting a new class on August 1 and encourages all interested personnel to call at 257-2680. Their next goal is a 13-man link- up.
