It's in the right spot, Damon. Look closely around al that yellow paint and you'll see "United States Army" on the tail section. Most likely its Army Reserve. Cal Fire calls upon a Navy Reserve squadon at North Island HS-85. HS-85 usually carries the dipable water bags for fire fighting suppression. NAS North Island Supply has 3 different sizes of those dipable bags in stock. 325 gallon, 350 gallon, and 425 gallon. HS-85 will hook up to their H-60B helos what ever Cal Fire requests them to carry.

Thanks, they are the CA ANG guys at Los Alamitos and I am not sure how many of the Blackhawks have this kit.  Probably just a few.  I have see photos also if the CH-53's with the Bambi buckets as well for the Nor Cal fires.

Oh, so that's how they do it. Sure beats a bucket and a hose.
