Green Monster retirement


Recommended Posts

Hey Gunny. I just got word that HX-21 plans to retire the Green Monster, aka CH-53E 163083, around September this year. The attached image is one of my shots when the helicopter was departing Pax in 2008 for Arizona, and eventually New River. The helicopter returned to HX-21 in 2021-2022. I'm told it will be transferred to the Pax River Museum when it's retired, etc...

My guy at HX-21 tells me they will have a better idea on the retirement date in April.
