mtnere54

the plaque was carried up in a navy helicopter with the blessing of the nps.

the chopper that crashed (navy) was going after someone with a leg injury (broken?) as I remember. it went down killing several crew members and seriously injuring others. that set off another rescue that at first was hampered by bad weather but succesfully carried out after a day or so. i was on this mission as a mtn. rescue member but it was a long time ago and my memories not so good.
