Huskies were a familiar sight at US bases during the Vietnam era, standing by for fire and rescue duties. These days of course I'd wait for the passers-by behind, but adds a touch of period fashion here! Although this "Pedro" is no longer extant, 62-4535 which also served 40 ARRS is the care of the Midland Air Museum This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
