[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3866539, member: 26737"] I used to know a guy who was in the Pink Teams in Vietnam. He said everyone wondered how they had such a high up-time with their helos; he said it's really not that hard if you can get down to the harbor and steal extra birds right off the docks. He also said they used to fly out to the carriers for various reasons (mainly because they had better chow), and one time while he was out there in the mess, they had a declared emergency. The Navy doesn't screw around with those, so they shoved his helicopter over the side before he could do anything about it. He said he got royally chewed out by his CO over that, and it didn't help at all when he told him not to worry about because it was one of the birds they'd stolen off the docks... [/QUOTE]
