I was stationed at NAS Pensacola 1963-1966. We had 3 ch19's used for search and rescue. I have been told the one you have on display was the same one we had a "hard landing" with afte the tail pylon come off. I am intersted in pictures of the time period I was stationed there. We also maintained 2 UF-1's (HU16C)
