Has anyone seen/heard a report about a Coast Guard helo down in NOLA? |
|
BBC News is reporting it. Looks like it happened yesterday. I haven't seen it on our corporate whore news stations and neither has my husband.

(with a picture) The copter was red like Coast Guard, the discussion was why would they paint an Army copter red?
Maybe I can find it...

8. The color was what made me think it was Coast Guard |
|
The report didn't say that, I just assumed. Thanks if you can find the thread, I'll continue reading....

3. I do not think it was a CG but it was red. Today on TV this was said |
|
It was picking animals. By the way the CG has done a great job and they were there fast. Were they put in to Home Land? I do not think so. This was what they said, I think, when they did not wish to be put in.

7. Not a CG Helicopter. Coast Guard is part of Homeland (in)Security |
|
Their competence is not affected by the idiots the now have to report to now. Thank goodness.
Homeland Security Department as it was created by the GOP is a joke. They just put a crapload of departments under a new structure and left the real intelligence agencies (the original source of the problem) alone.

9. It was a private helicopter. |
|
I think it was involved with animal rescue. The two people on board were only slightly injured. I don't know if there were any animals on board. I saw it on TV last night.
