'lv I . ,xx Two days later we rendezvoused with the KANSAS CITY IAOR-3l, already homeward hound after only four months of deployment. Their air detachment, HC Eleven DET THREE, is the same detachment that the WICHITA took with her on her mini-dr-ploy- ment last August. As the WICHITA pumped fur-I to the KANSAS CITY, the flight decks of both ships got busy launching their respective helos. The WIC! IITA launched Sideflares 66 and 67, and after some diffi- culty the KANSAS CITY finally got Sirleflare 64 aloft, The three helos transferred air dr-t personnel and supply officers back and forth, each looking for in- side information and hard-to-finrIsp.1re parts It was -fb t tsxtsla like olrl home' ww-lt st-ving tht' pilots and t'r0wSIl13!
