UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter crew chiefs, assigned to Utah Army National Guard’s 2-211 Aviation Regiment, prepare a long-line hoist cable prior to airlifting fossilized dinosaur remains for the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences and the Utah Museum of Natural History near Bryce Canyon, Utah, June 13, 2026. The Utah National Guard trains on aerial hoist missions to maintain the proficiency needed to operate in areas inaccessible by traditional means. This capability supports search and rescue and disaster response efforts, while also enabling Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) missions that provide essential services to communities and strengthen military readiness. Regular training ensures aircrews and ground personnel remain ready whenever they are called upon. (Utah National Guard photo by Maj. Jeffrey Brenchley)
