HC-3 Detachment 101 Detachment 101 of Helicopter Support Squadron THREE is the helo team assigned to WHITE PLAINS. When WHITE PLAINS is not deployed or participating in a fleet exercise, the birds, gear, and people of the de- tachment fly south to their nest in the sun at Naval Air Station, Imperial Beach, California. When embarked on the ship, the detachment stays busy shuttling cargo and people to the ships and shore installations WHITE PLAINS replen- ishes. with each line swing the detachment seems to become more important as more goods are transferred bv helo. Not all of the flights made by the helos of Det 101 are for other units. The detachment provides service to the men of WHITE PLAINS also. The helos have carried crew members to swim calls in Viet Nam, liberty excursions in Baguio, Corregidor, and Manila and made mail runs to Danang when we were on the Line. In addition, a helo is always ready to act as a recovery craft in event of a man overboard. The men of the detachment do their own administrative work and their ' on the helicopters and supporting own maintenance and PMS checks gear, to ensure that the birds will fly when needed. rv-an 'fy -1 LJ 2 I , . 1 f x .1- X.: I X LCDR john S.Iones Detach ment Officer L f if FIRST R - ' ' - LUG ChOYV AMS3 Michael Gallion, ADF C.B.
