kpc7676 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Just a few Seahawks of different marks. I was an Officer on an RAN ship serving for four months exclusively in the NAG protecting the Iraqi oil assets from attack. We did it in conjunction with other units including USCG patrol boats and the occasional DDG too. There was also usually a carrier in the region (USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN for a proportion of our time) and we also got aviation support from Bahrain and other Destroyers/Frigates in the area. Enjoy, and I may be able to dredge up some more if enough interest shown. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Great stuff! I reckon if you weathered a Seahawk to that extent you would raise an eyebrow or two but the photo,s show just how grubby they are in service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
