[MilAir] New State Dept helo at Patrick AFB

[AllanStern at aol.com]

It is Fri, 1:55pm EDT (1755z).
  Sounds like we have a new DOS helo here at Patrick AFB: "DOS  438."  He has 
been flying a local training mission today, heard on 133.75.  I'd love to 
snag his tail number, but it is difficult to get close enough to the  DOS acft, 
except during their appearance at the Titusville TICO Airshow each  year.
  Patrick is home to a bevy of UH-1 Huey choppers and OV-10D  Broncos of the 
US State Dept Bureau of International Narcotics &  Law Enforcement Affairs. 
The choppers fly as armed escorts for the OV-10Ds that  spray the coca crops in 
So America.
