USS Arctic July 2001

Post by hvaneupen » Tue Jul 27, 2021 8:23 am

During summerholiday's in July 2001 I visited the beaches of Cannes. In the bay of Cannes the USS Arctic was ankered with two CH46D of HC-6 Det.2 onboard. Simply by asking one of the sailors walking around it was possible to visit the ship and take some pictures:
