Weather Days

Snow has accumulated in the upper elevations of the mountainous terrain since the end of October...but the winter weather finally arrived.  We have been fortunate to avoid hazardous cold weather operations for as long as we have...especially with no hangar facilities.

 
On weather days, the pilots, backseaters and mechanics gather in the crew tent for cards...spades is the card game of choice and teams are typically paired off as "Old Guys" versus the "Young Guys".  The background noise is Armed Forces Network on the big screen TV displaying Headline News, NFL or College Bowl games...the UFC matches also have a following.  A guitar can also be heard in the background since there are three "pickers" in the unit.
