Subject: Flag Bird

Rotorheads,

On this Flag Day, this is one of Shayne's favorite paint jobs.  I downloaded the pics off her Face Book page (thanks Fly Girl Painter 😎) where she also said that she painted it in 2015 on the 15^th anniversary of 9-11.  It was one of HSC-21's birds at North Island: MH-60S 168578.  She said the paint job survived for about six years, before the bird was repainted circa 2021 or so.  Fly a Flag today.
