USAF Rescue Helicopter

After we left the Sea Life Center, many people were looking up at the mountain. We heard a helicopter. We watched for awhile with the binoculars. After we left, we soon heard a helicopter very near us. We drove a couple of blocks to the local hospital, and there it was.


Off loading the patient (she'd been hiking, fallen and broken her leg, we heard).


We sat in the car watching.


It's taking off. It's much larger than the helipad. See the man leaning out the window?


Up in the air and he's still hanging out the window. As we were driving around Seward later, we saw this helicopter again. It was in the air and being refueled by a C130 tanker. Very interesting.
