    Guardsmen Brave Elements During 12-Hour Dike Patrol Shifts

    A Minnesota Army National Guard UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter practices sling load operations March 19, Fargo, N.D. Sgt. 1st Class Todd Suderheimer, of the 2/147th Aviation Battalion, is training North Dakota Air National Guard members on the ground how to link a 1.5 ton sandbag unto 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 flood waters anywhere in eastern North Dakota.
