The Kaman HH-43 Huskie in the PACAF  Region
A survey, compiled by Johan Ragay, based on USAF documents filed in the AFHRA, Maxwell AFB, AL

                    In the following table all HH-43 which were assigned to SEA units or units elsewhere in the PACAF
                    region are presented in order of their serial number. By clicking on the serial number a page with
                    detailed information will appear.
                    The information on these pages was gained from the USAF Individual Aircraft History Records, which
                    can be found in the archives at Maxwell AFB, AL (the AF Historical Research Agency, AFHRA)

                    Further sources were the official documents saved by the USAF at AFHRA and some information was
                    gained from publications on the Internet. In several cases the Individual Aircraft History Records were
                    not complete or even wrong. See the accompanying notes.
                    In many cases the units were not given in the Individual Aircraft History Records (mostly only the higher
                    command). This information was however gained from the AFHRA documents and matched to the
                    assigned locations (which were always on the Aircraft Records).
