Chinook in special colors to celebrate 75 years 298 squadron. On left side she is decorated with the squadron badge dragonfly. On the right side you find the grizzly bear which is the squadron mascot and often used as callsign. In addition she is decorated with the sticker "75 years 1945-2020 298 squadron". The D-666 is chosen because she is flying 25 years for the squadron. She just dropped a bambi bucket to support the firebrigade at the wildfire of Deurnsche Peel This photo is copyright © Michiel van Herten, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
