VNG aviation crews depart for Hurricane Milton support mission
Virginia National Guard aviation crews and Chesterfield County Fire and Emergency Medical Services Scuba Rescue Team members prepare to head to Florida to support Hurricane Milton response operations Oct. 8, 2024, at the Army Aviation Support Facility in Sandston, Virginia. The VNG aviators and Chesterfield first responders form the Virginia Helicopter Aquatic Rescue Team, providing rotary wing aviation hoist capabilities and aerial rescue evacuation. The team is taking one UH-60 Black Hawk to Florida in support of an Emergency Management Assistance Compact request for additional assets ahead of Hurricane Milton. Before they departed, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin addressed the team to thank them for their service. (U.S. National Guard photo by Mike Vrabel)
