Photo Comment

On an early morning departure of the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) from its homeport NB Norfolk, this HH-60H departed the flight deck to support the ship out of the harbour to open sea. The helicopter crew observes the environment of the carrier until the carrier is far enough from its port. This HH-60H was stored at AMARG from 20 February 2015 up to June 2020. It was moved to Aviation Logistics Center Elizabeth City (NC) where it was used for a US Coast Guard hull conversion. It was last noted there in mid 2020. Current status unknown.
