After midnight Monday night here near Tysons, I got a loud signal from
Blackjack One working DCA tower on the helo frequency 120.75 MHz. Told
tower that he was over Tysons (and I heard the rotors) and had a "tasking"
from Bigfoot to orbit over DCA. He asked what altitude to take and they
apparently assigned him 2,000 feet and away he went.
So who are Blackjack One and his bigfooted friend?

Note: It took me four tries to send this. Turned out that my Subject:
line, which was originally "Blackjack One," runs afoul of the list's spam
filters, which are evidently trained to reject any mention of Blackjack.
