The Alaska Army National Guard is in the process of stationing a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter and air crew permanently in Nome.
The timeline for getting the Nome helicopter and crew in place is based on the weather – and the barge schedule.
The new helicopter’s summer arrival will be the first National Guard presence in the region in two years. Edwards said a helicopter previously stationed in Nome was sent abroad on the Guard’s rotating foreign deployments. There is currently one crew member already living in Nome. The others will need to find a place to live, Edwards said, as there is no military housing in the area.
According to Edwards, a significant number of Army Guard aviators returned from deployment last year, and this is the first opportunity to station a permanent crew in Nome.
