And Witnessed The Incident)

Another Correction To The F-8 Photos, This One From Jim Andrews, Former HUP-2 Driver With HU-1
First The Photo of The Pilot In The Cockpit Isn't Lt Don Jordon So I've Removed the Photo,
Second The Helo Was The Wrong Type For The 1962 Cruise.
It Should Be A HUP-2, Not A UH-2A.
And The Helo Drivers Name Was(Isn't This Amazin.)Lt.jg Jim Andrews Not Lt. Frank Joy.
Thanks For The Heads-Up Jim.
