Default Hoovering Hawk

The U.S. Army posted a photo:



Pfc. Natalie Mehring, Forward Support Company, 6th Engineer Battalion, of Phoenix, Ariz., connects a cable to a hovering UH-60L helicopter during slingload operations with the 1st Battalion, 207th Aviation Regiment, Alaska Army National Guard, at Landing Zone Ranger, JBER-Richardson, Sept. 20, 2012. The soldiers were responsible for setting up the landing zone, rigging both a High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle and water trailer for slingloading, and maintaining communications with the helicopter as part of unit proficiency in providing critical supplies and equipment by rotary aircraft delivery.
