		Set Flight Quarters Condition One! 
		   These guys have the thankless job of being prepard for any emergency involving a helicopter crash on deck or in the water.  They are trained in fire fighting, and launching small boats. | 
	       
	       
		 
		  HH65A Put to Bed for the Night! 
		     In fair weather it is quite common to leave the ready aircraft spotted and tied down on the flight deck over night.  The use of covers gives added protection from the elements.
