How pleased am I to see an actual photo of the delivery. The only reason I knew about these deliveries, is I attended A&amp;P school on the Portland Air Force Base, and watched and heard multiple C-124&#039;s taxi to our flight line, each to offload a single CH-34. <br> <br>Thanks. <br>Wayne S.

June 28 ,tonight 7/3 i was sitting on my deck watching the fireworks a chopper flew over &amp; my thoughts immediately went to Jim . We first met at Stead AFB in early 1962 Jim was on the H-19 flt line &amp; I was on the H-43 flt line so we didn&#039;t hook up much. In 1964 we both ended up at WPAFB, both being low rank &amp; just starting our families we became good friends . We would get together at one another&#039;s house have dinner &amp; play cards. In 1965 I left the AF &amp; Jim continued his career in the AF we we got together a couple of times &amp; Jim &amp; Carol spent a couple of days with us when he came back from NKP.We lost track of one another until 2007 when another rotorhead Don Hoge found the Rotorheads RUS website &amp; got in touch with Jim &amp; gave him my phone #. Jim gave me a call &amp; invited us to come visit them, we were able to get together in June 2007 &amp; had a wonderful weekend with them .We got together a couple of times after that &amp; right before before Xmas 2008 Ron Feight ,Dick Kenuzli &amp; myself &amp; our wives got together at Jim &amp; Carol&#039;s for dinner and a day of remembrance Jim I still don&#039;t remember what we were doing with that gal of yellow paint .

That page hasn&#039;t been updated in ages and does have some errors in it. i.e: Dave Rech was not in the Barry Walls\Buddy Fortner crash in NM, I think he&#039;s still around somewhere. <br>I&#039;ve tried to send names to them to no avail. i.e: John Sfier, Larry Leaming, Ron Fagan, all who perished in crashes. <br>This site you have here is a whole lot better than the Jolly Green. You even have the MAC Flyer article that made me famous, sort of. https://www.rotorheadsrus.us/documents/guestbook.php?entry_id=1214923318 https://www.rotorheadsrus.us/documents/guestbook.php?entry_id=1214923318&comments=comments https://www.rotorheadsrus.us/documents/guestbook.php?entry_id=1214923318 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 14:41:58 +0000 Fantastic site.

It was a great run and I wish we could all do it over again. LBRs were the pits but flying the HH-43 was really great. The heavies finally gave us a chance to get away from the home field and find out what real flying was all about.
