J ' C721 4 . I ' pure-High? check-up v I 1 l l 3 a I N 1 l, W. 1 --1 retrieveing the BELL Instrumental in the accomplishment of TANNER's mission was Detachment 76 of Helicopter Utility Squardron Four from Lakehurst, New jersey. During this cruise the ship's records for number of hours flown in one day, number of flights completed in one day,' and amount of time required for setting up a beach camp were broken by the three pilots and eight-man crew. The helicopter is invaluable in such rough terrian as the survey and photo- grammetry teams faced every day. Whe- ther it was delivering supplies and per- sonnel atop an unscalablercliff, transfer- ring men to another ship at sea, retriev- ing a man overboard, delivering mail and beer to a faraway soundboat or beach camp, V.I.P. excursions or transporting watermelons, the helo has always been worth its weight in Green Stamps. This year V two Whirlybirds were used: I-IT-21, the Bell , and HT-94, the I-Iorse . The Bell was used exten- sively in photo work, while the Horse carried largely cargo and personnel. As a unit they proved to be a vital member of the TANNER team. ll g Z , E 5 4 1 Horse in action 18 time out for repairs '
