Fascinating seeing old military choppers repurposed. Also, i believe that Huey said Sheriff on the side ... And it's hilarious seeing them dipping from the water hazard on the golf course. I hope that was a very exclusive country club 😂

Yes it is awesome to see these machines get new life on domestic missions. The Huey is Fire Authority they most likely didn’t opt for a complete re-skin because they will have the firehawk(s) operational in August.
Here it is common to dip in golf courses being the closest water source without any overhead obstacles.
