Jared,
David,

The UH-1s from 1st Helo Sqdn usually have white stripe along the top.

My guess would be an FBI or US Customs chopper. Couiple of them were 
floating around the area today.

My guess is a US Air Force UH-1 (callsign Mussel) VIP chopper from the 
89th Airlift Wing at Andrews AFB.  They do a lot of familiarization 
flights around the area, stopping at all the various landing sites that 
theyre required to know about for medevacs/emergencies etc...

A Small Dark Blue Helo with a Gold Strip Put Down on the Georgetown 
Helopad for about 30 seconds today. I didn't get a chance to get the 
tail numbers, but it did say United States of America Across the Side. 
There were no other indications of the agency, no one got on or off the 
Helo.

Any ideas on what this was?
