An Alaska Air National Guard HH-60W Jolly Green II helicopter, assigned to the 210 Rescue Squadron, launches from the flight line on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, August 6, 2025. The Alaska Air National Guard is the first Alaska based unit to field the HH-60W and the flight was the first time a Jolly Green II had ever taken off from JBER. The HH-60W is a result of the development of the HH-60G Pave Hawk and built upon the existing and proven framework of the UH-60M Black Hawk production model. The HH-60W received its name as the Jolly Green II during a ceremony in February 2020, honoring the Jolly Green crews of previous generations who established the excellence and capability expected of the USAF combat rescue crews today.
