ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England -- Students at RAF Feltwell had a special show and tell session June 2, when an HH-60G Pavehawk helicopter from the 56th Rescue Squadron stopped by to visit them.

After the helicopter landed it was made safe by the aircrew, and then the elementary students were allowed to come up and explore the aircraft. The aircrew taught the children about their role and mission within the U.S. Air Force and about the capabilities of their helicopter.

The display lasted a few hours and multiple classes were allowed the opportunity to visit. More than 300 students stopped by to see the helicopter and learn about its mission.
