UH-1N 31072 69-6666 | 31072 | 69-6666 | North of Spokane, WA. Then listed as Save 66. It was tasked that day for MAST support to WA dept. Forestry for 2 (minor) injured workers stuck on steep terrain needing extrication and med eval. Back then I was a SERE school medic. Was asked if I wanted to go do the recovery to evaluate and get them on the hoist? I had a couple of other med transports on 66 from the training area over the years 82-85. But That was my 1st and only hoist recoveries. ![]() | ||

![]() | 1971, right after New Years, I reported for duty at HC-2 in Lakehurst. I remember CDR Street was the maintenance officer and was unique in that he had blimp pilot wings and was a mustang (worked his way up thru the enlisted ranks). If I remember correctly, he had a daughter Roberta. I volunteered to fly, became a rescue swimmer, got my wings after SERE, etc, etc. I was one of the first to be trained for the SH-3G aircraft. We still had the SH-2F aircraft also, so for a while we had quite a crowded hangar. I was on detachments to several ships but mostly on the FDR thru 1973. Hurricane Agnes in PA in 1972. Unfortunately the Navy moved us to NAS Jax and it just wasn't the same. ![]() | ![]() | 1971, right after New Years, I reported for duty at HC-2 in Lakehurst.

![]() | 1963, I joined Hs9 right out of boot camp I made my first voyage on the Essex and was on her in the November storm. I advanced from Mess cook to ADJ 3 to flight deck trouble shooter and Jet shop overhaul .I spent 2 med cruises , One on the Essex one on the Randolph We also did a short cruise on the Forestall Flying plane guard. WE also sent a detachment of six planes on the USS Lasalle .n where we picked up an unmanned capsule this is where we received our shell back badge. nAll of these different assignments were because the Essex was in the yards because of the damage in the 63 storm. I remember that We lost 3 planes while I was in the Squadron. one in the red sea I don't remember where the last two were. I lost a friend in one of those crashes Of the 3 crashes I think only 1 survivor of the 12 crewmen . WE were flying the A model of the Sea king and all the kinks had not been worked out .We think transmission failure was the cause of all three crashes.n I spent all 4 of my years in HS 9.nRobert Shupe ADJ 3 ![]() | ![]() | 1963, I joined Hs9 right out of boot camp I made my first voyage on the Essex and was on her in the November storm.
