Sadly that will probably never happen. When was the last time the Navy really went overland to do a CSAR mission? Long time. When was the last time we employed weapons overland? The air ambulance thing is pretty tame compared with what the army and air force helos do. I think we got extremely hamstringed in that department with the range.
When was the last time a Navy Helicopter fired overland? I don't know, yesterday? Ever hear of HSC-85? Those guys have been hot and heavy for the last 4 years in Iraq. I know that HS-4 sent hot lead downrange on their 05/06 deployment. HS-8 had several hundred hours of green ink overland in 05. Just because your don't know about it does not mean that it is not going on.
We are the last HS squadron doing ASW, so I can testify to what happens when a contact shows up. .
Really? Wow. You might want to break that happy news to HS-2, HS-4, HS-6 and all of the East Coast bubbas as well. They are hauling all that sonar gear around for nothing! Being from HS-14 you can testify as to what happens when a contact shows up 2 miles from your unit, but you need to check the rest of your facts.
