Default Tour of Okinawa in an HH-60

While searching for the F-15 crash at Kadena, I ran into this video, apparently one of our ops guys video taped flying one of our helo's here at Kadena. Looks like they started out at the base, doing a low approach over 05L, then proceded out to the gun range to fire thier GAU's

And for any of yo.u interested , this is was my office for 5 years (before I went to the MOC), this video shows the ins and outs of an HH-60G Pavehawk.

P.S. At the end of the video, the guys are joking around "What the hell is this thing?!?! That's an APU or Auxilliary Power Unit

Very cool! Mini-guns! Awesome! We still have M60Ds and have been fighting for mini-guns for a long time. Great post!

Barely I can't count the number of times I whacked my head on the 308 beam

I can reach over and ensure the passenfer door is latched without extending my arm all the way.
