21st TSC spearheads helicopter offload at Antwerp

Elements of the 21st Theater Sustainment Command assisted the 838th Transportation Battalion, Kleber Kaserne, Kaiserslautern, Germany, with the offload of nearly 50 Army helicopters and associated components from a cargo ship at the port here, Jan. 17.

The AH-64 Apache helicopters and CH-47 Chinook helicopters began their journey in Beaumont, Texas, where they spent 12 days traveling across the Atlantic Ocean before being offloaded and stored at the port of Antwerp.

Various United States and partner nation agencies are involved in the movement with the final destination set for Coleman Barracks, Germany, where the 12th Combat Aviation Brigade will assemble and distribute the helicopters to its subordinate units.

According to Hans Roggeveen, a senior cargo specialist with the Benelux Detachment of 838th Trans., the cargo will be stored in Antwerp for up to three weeks before being loaded onto barges and transported down the Rhine River into Germany.

Hello 2TAF MBA Members:

Here's a cool video on flying the B-25; it's recorded using the B-25 Mitchell 'Grumpy' of the Historic Flight Foundation, who, in addition to a remarkable flying museum, operate a B-25 qualification school.

Thx Dave for sharing 

Some wonderful sequences.
