The "ROCK" is/was/always will be Whidbey, in USN parlance at any rate ... :)

I checked with the SAR C.O. (I'm name dropping, actually ran into him in the Exchange -- chatted and he invited me over for a look-see/pony show) .... and the paint deal is:

When they get a "permanent" -60 for a station SAR birds, they paint it orange/gray .... the ultimate plan is for all "permanent" birds to be white/orange. The all gray ones that I see flying past the final-resting-place-ROCK are "temps" ... borrowed from someone and on "loan" until NAS gets all their birds up and running on their TO&E.

That's according to my newest, best friend ... the CO. :)

roger on the rock and paint job. i had heard a similar story about them not wanting/being able to repaint the birds in a typical Navy SAR scheme.

sweet hook up with the Whidbey SAR guys. let us know how the tour goes.

That is all we need another retiree with the Duty on speed dial and a telephoto lense. Its like a Greek myth they lure in with Sirens in Bikinis then call the duty and crush us like Cilla and Caribdas

However, from the looks of things, Skid has been dishonorably discharged from JOPA. And to think we trusted you...
