Air Force Special Operations Command airmen at Hurlburt Field, Fla., have put MH-53 Pave Low IV #68-10928 on display in the field airpark. The helicopter saw service in Europe, Laos, Thailand, and the deserts of Iraq. Joining current special ops airmen were three generations of Pave Low operators. The new AFSOC boss, Lt. Gen. Don Wurster, said the MH-53 is a “remarkable piece of equipment,” helping its airmen earn 13 Air Force Crosses and 140 Silver Stars. (Report by 2nd Lt. Lauren Johnson)
