On deployment …
Things are going well, but as you can see I don’t frequent my website very often, I just finished uploading pictures from the first few monthes, I don’t know when I get the next two monthes on here but rest assured I’ll post them.
Enjoy.

Thank goodness you have a better helo aboard. I was the air controller in DD-761 and we had a remote controlled helo which was supposed to carry a atomic depth charge. One problem though, it had a habit of disappearing over the horizon never to be seen again. It was known as DASH and was a horrible failure after mucho money was spent on it. I was glad to leave that ship without losing the helo.

….=-) Remote Control uh? Who was in charge of the remote?
No this guy here has a compliment of pilots and maintainers, my job is to ensure the mechanism underneath the helo, on the flight deck called RAST is fully operational, it catches and releases the bird as well as takes it in and out of the hanger bay.
