Please let me know if you know any of these gentlemen.
I enjoyed the use of the Sikorsky CH-54 (Flying Crane) and thank those avaitors for their assistance in the construction of our bridges.
At the left is a CH-54 going back to pick up addtional pontoons and "bulk"
On the larger bridge missions we had a Sikorsky CH-54 help. This was especially important when the assembly site was a considerable distance from the river.
This photo depicts the picking up of the inflated pontoons and bulk.
In searching the web, I found no pictures of the CH-54 being used for this type of work. Here's one for their books.
This is a photo of the drop at the river. Then the bridge erection boats & operators hooked up to the pontoons and put them in position
