Kliegmann Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 Having lived there, 2 weeks is about enough. It gives you the opportunity to see everything, and gets you out before the onset of island sickness. J5_Hotlead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UH-1s, AH-1s, MH-60s, H-53s, and Ospreys. OMG UH-1's, AH-1's and H-53's? Geez, I can't believe anybody, even the National Guard, would still being using that stuff (I mean, I worked on that stuff). 60's and Ospreys I could see.... In any case, you're in Hawaii, why you lookin' at that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kliegmann Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 MOS: 67N - UH-1H mechanic here. Stationed Schofield Barracks. If you can get on Wheeler, you can go into the valley to the old runway. There's still bullet holes in the runway where the zeros strafed while a pair of P-40s attempted to take off there. There's also still battle damage on the hangers at wheeler as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

93rd Aero, R.Talbot Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 In 2007 I, and a number of other guys in my unit, were presented the option to fast rope from the Osprey. We would have been the first ones ever if I remember correctly. However, given the Ospreys track record up to that point and the fact that I was roughly 3 weeks away from finishing my enlistment term, I politely declined, using appropriate expletives of course. I watched from the barracks as I sipped a cold beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 That first hangar on Schoolfield was used by a UAV company that I fielded in ‘06. It still had the holes 😎 Kliegmann 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
