A Minnesota Army National Guard UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter practices sling-load operations March 19 in Fargo, N.D. Sgt. 1st Class Todd Sudheimer, of the 2/147th Aviation Battalion, trains North Dakota Air National Guard members on the ground how to link a 1.5-ton sandbag onto the helicopter cable so that the sandbag can be transported to a simulated flood fighting location. The training and placement of the large sandbags are in preparation for UH-60 helicopter sling-load flood operations, should they be necessary in an emergency situation with rising floodwaters anywhere in eastern North Dakota.
