HC-1 | 1972. HC1 DET 7, USS Hancock, ADJ Helicopter Mechanic. Shared some of the same memories listed here. I also remember flying into DaNang with Smith. I’ll never forget Fish. He was my best friend and died a sad death. I should be easily remembered as I was the only black guy at that time. Owen Lasley. | HC-1 | 1972. HC1 DET 7, USS Hancock, ADJ Helicopter Mechanic.

MCAF Quantico / Turner Field | In List of helicopters at Quantico is missing the SH-3G. You have a link on your site showing MX-15, # 148043 around 1973 at Quantico. This aircraft was the only green side aircraft that was stationed on the Presidential (white top) side. It was the white bird at Anacostia before the VH-3Ds were placed into service. There were 3 SH-3G's at HMX from the early 1970s. When MX-15, 148043 went over to the white top side, a 4th SH-3G was taken from the Navy at NAS Norfolk. | MCAF Quantico / Turner Field | In List of helicopters at Quantico is missing the SH-3G.

HSL-35 | 1986-1989 AD2 Talley HSL-35 Det 7,March 1988 I was a Lead Mechanic on A/C 35 Buno 161910 , on deployment on the USS Bagley FF-1086 to the Persian gulf. We lost our helicopter due to transmission failure, all aircrew and pilots survived. In a couple weeks we prepared for a New Helicopter Flown from North Island to Bahrain, it was so cool , 10 days later we headed for the persian gulf with our battle group USS Enterprise CVN -65 in Operation Praying Mantis, Never thought I would see combat action... It was a great experience working together with a great team. | HSL-35 | 1986-1989 AD2 Talley HSL-35 Det 7,March 1988 I was a Lead Mechanic on A/C 35 Buno 161910 , on deployment on the USS Bagley FF-1086 to the Persian gulf.
