This 1970s Sikorsky promotional film looks at the advantages and many uses of helicopters in warfare. It begins and ends with a class of prospective helicopter pilots, who are followed through their training. The rest of the film focuses on different applications including mine sweeping, search and rescue operations, resupply operations, and dropping off troops in combat zones. The film shows several Sikorsky models in action, notably the Sikorsky SH-3 Sea King (company designation S-61), H-34 "Choctaw" (company designation S-58), and the Sikorsky HH-3E helicopter, nicknamed the "Jolly Green Giant". 0:08 U.S. Navy Chinook helicopter dropping boats and troops in a river, 0:43 troops cautiously land on a river bank and begin sneaking inland, 1:43 troops open fire on something in the water, 2:00 “Hook, Line and Helo”, 2:07 soldiers move through the riverbank, 2:33 different navy computers used for helicopter training, 3:15 prospective helicopter pilots learning how to fly at the Naval Air Station, Ellison Field, Pensacola Florida, 3:54 Sikorsky H-34 lifting concrete blocks during training, 4:17 Pilot doing square patterns with a Bell 47, 4:46 Sikorsky H-34 landing in a small spot, 5:02 Bell 47 flying backwards, 5:11 H-34 doing a simulated person rescue, 6:00 Ellison Field graduates at their graduation ceremony, 6:38 a sea mine in the ocean, 6:47 Kaman SH-2 on the deck of ship and taking off to destroy a mine, 7:38 helicopter towing a cutter to sever a mooring cable to surface a mine, 8:50 a submarine in the water, 9:12 Grumman C-2 Greyhounds on an aircraft carrier deck and taking off, 10:07 Sikorsky SH-3 Sea King observing a mid sea fuel exchange, 10:42 maintenance crews working on aircraft and helicopters, 10:54 SH-3 lifted up to deck, 11:19 crews being briefed for a mission, 11:37 SH-3 preparing and taking off, 12:25 SH-3 lowering sonar probe, 12:59 SH-3 being refueled mid-flight by a destroyer, 14:14 SH-3 launching a torpedo, 14:21 a rocket taking off, 15:01 SH-3 picking up astronauts to a carrier after their return from space, 15:54 SH-3 lifting people off the destroyer USS Shelton DD-790, 16:10 supplies being lifted onto combat vessels, 16:47 a CH-47 Chinook lifting supplies onto a ship which are unpacked by crews, 18:29 Parachutists jumping off a Ch-47 Chinooks, 18:50 summary footage showing the possibilities of helicopters in war, 19:53 Sikorsky UH-34Ds taking off from Landing Platform Helicopter Carriers, 20:11 Air force bombing targets on shore, 20:42 marines boarding CH-47 Chinooks which set them down in fields, 21:27 Sikorsky HH 3E dropping artillery in a field, 21:42 Marines board a Sikorsky HH 3E which drops them off in the countryside, 22:51 Sikorsky SH-3 evacuating wounded soldiers off a hit ship, 23:48 instructor teaching a class and playing a recording of an actual emergency, 25:15 SH-3 rescuing a man stranded at sea at night with a swimmer jumping out of the helicopter to rescue him, 27:04 Edited by Dick Laitinen and Joe Sommers, 27:18 Narrated by Bob Ellsworth, 27:30 Produced by Sikorsky Aircraft
