Photo Comment
The first of only six S-58 helicopters - HUS-1Gs 1332 through 1336 and 1343 - to serve in the US Coast Guard, which received the HH-52 Seaguard instead. The 6A tail code of the Skyraiders in the background hints at NAS Anacostia as the photo location. 1332 went to the USAF as 63-7972 and to Air America in August 1963, then to the Laotian air force.
