Chinook 205 at Borden

[Captain Canada]

205 rolled on a hard landing in Afghanistan. Cool story involving a trio of US Marines CH-53s coming to the rescue, one taking away the wounded, one flying cover, and the other helping the Canucks sling it and haul it back to base. Google it wink emoticon

400 Squadron Griffon off in the distance, maybe one day she flew cover for 205 ?
