US HMM-164 Correction: The Tustin CH-46/CH-53 midair was in February 1981 not 1980. HMM 164 was in Okinawa in February 1980. I was in HMM-164 and was serving as the Group Duty Officer that evening so I was very busy. Larry King was one of my best friends, we worked together in the MAG-16 S3 together.

US HMM-164 1971, I was in BLT 2/9 summer of 1971 on USS New Orleans (LPH-11). A drunk maintinance Sgt. told me "Never get on YT-XXX. He didn't explain why. December 1971, back at Camp Schwab, Okinawa, I got "volunteered" to see Bob Hope's Christmas show. As we marched onto the parade field, to be flown south, I saw YT-XXX and thought "Hell no".

US HS-1 By Jonathan Smith, AZ2, 1995-1997 - I worked in Maint. Admin, and as a Database Analyst. We decommissioned the squadron, and I was the last sailor to leave, checking out of the Wing. It was a culture shock, coming from ship's company, on the USS JFK, but it was a successful tour. US HS-1 By Jonathan Smith, AZ2, 1995-1997 - I worked in Maint. Admin, and as a Database Analyst.
