I've only been able to find a little information (ABR 57150, LBR and ACR missions on the Kaman HH43 Huskie). Does anyone know anyone who was an ABR Firefighter? Or, does anyone else have any information?

It's been a long time with no further information. I appreciate the comments. I was able to discover that the AFSC for Airborne Rescuemen/Firefighters was A571XX as opposed to just the 571XX. The program ran from approximately 1964 and was deactivated in 1973, with the final units deactivating in 1975.

I served with 4 SSgt's who did duty on HH43. 2 were at Da Nang, do not remember where the other 2 served. we were stationed together at Shaw AFB, 1974-75. Had some interesting stories.
