Today’s #throwbackthursday comes via Coast Guard Air Station Miami! An HH-52 Seaguard helicopter is shown hovering next to a vessel, name unknown. The HH-52 was an amphibious helicopter, allowing the crew to land on water. They were retired from active service in 1989. What do you think of the amphibious helicopters of the Coast Guard’s past?
