    Constructed as an UH-1H.

    Taken on Strength/Charge with the United States Army with s/n 74-22386.

    8 August 1988


    Photographer: LTC (Ret) Greg Miller
    Notes: On this great day flying a military support mission in this aircraft we experienced a total engine failure, catastrophic, while climbing thru 700 feet AGL. Auto with turn, 270 degrees and the only damage to the aircraft, outside of the engine, was a shrapnel hole in the tail rotor pylon! A great day for the five souls I had flying with me that day. We replaced the engine, Pease AFB New Hampshire MA in one week and flew her home to Otis ANG Base where she was stationed in my unit Aviation Brigade 26th ID. She flew for ten more years with us before Blackhawks arrived in the unit.
