, I qualified as an SAR Aircrewman on this while stationed at CGAS St Petersburg Albert Whitted Field. As a matter of fact I flew on every HH3F Stationed there during my 3 years there: 1475,1476,1477 and 1467. 1474 replaced 1467 in appox 1972
I was privileged as a Flight Mechanic to take the 1475 to Blackhawk Technical College the first week of May 1994 from CGAS Clearwater. We used the airframe as the static display during the farewell ceremony, during the party everybody signed the Helo with sharpies. 1475 was the second to the last HH-3F to leave the CG the 1486 was the last... It was a great trip with 0 discrepancies noted. Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater
