helolumpy Apprentice School Principal pilot Contributor Nov 11, 2009 #4 I did fast roping to a SSN once, the weather was a whole lot better than the CG guys had. Gotta give those guys some respect; the NHA heroism award should just be renamed "Scariest Coast Guard Rescue by a Sitka/Kodiak Crew"!! Attachments 22 SEP SEAL Fast Rope 079.jpg 794.1 KB · Views: 56
