Department of the Air Force Civic Leaders interact with a static display during a tour of the 1st Helicopter Squadron at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, Aug. 26, 2026. The engagement allowed civic leaders to discuss the capabilities of the wing's rotary-wing fleet and the upcoming transition to the modern HH-60W Jolly Green II platform, which provides a generational leap in safety, speed and mission range for the National Capital Region's no-fail contingency response mission.
