Helo Detachment
     The Helo Detachment was a new experience for many Brewton personnel as well as to the Helo personnel this Westpac. The Brewton was a complete Anti-submarine Warfare Platform with the LAMPS on board. The Helo personnel were integrated into the ship's company and fast showed they had the Brewton can-do spirit. With over 200 launch and recoveries there were many hours of maintenance required to keep the Helo operable. The pilots, AMCS, ADJ's, AE's, AT's, AW's, and AX's were always ready to work put in those hours and due to their efforts Brewton's LAMPS met all her commitments and did an outstanding job. The Helo was an outstanding experience to many, especially to those who enjoyed a memorable ride in the Bird.
