It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s a Blackhawk! Soldiers of the 1-189th General Support Aviation Battalion took to the skies this April for Helicopter Aerial Gunnery (HAG) at the Orchard Combat Training Center outside Boise, Id.
HAG is an annual requirement for aviators and involves gunnery, aircraft maintenance, and teamwork to accomplish. Weapons qualification for all soldiers is a necessary skill, but firing a machine gun from a helicopter is a unique experience that many do not get. Well done to our aviators.
