Taken on the strength with the Marines in 1962, after loan periods with the USAF and US Army (used by the latter to carry President Kennedy in Dublin), this VH-3 joined HMX-1 in 1966. Among the VIPs carried were Presidents Nixon and Ford. In 1976 it moved to more regular work with the USN's HC-6 and HC-2 at NAS Norfolk and in early 2004 made a ferry flight to Pensacola for the museum where it was restored in its "Marine One" splendour
