Photo Comment

The Huskie will be well remembered by those attending USAF Armed Forces Days in the 1960s, often performing fire suppression demonstrations. This one had the honour of acting as a guard for Air Force One over the stewardship of three different Presidents. Until recently is was on display next to NEAM's Kaman HOK-1 but it is now in the storage shed.
