yep.. with HSL-31 I was an Aviation Ordnanceman and one of out jobs was to replace the fire bottle squibs on the engines every 224 days..I think.. That was a hard job that required some blind safety wiring..

We worked on the SH-2F Sea Sprite..I was with that shore based squadron on NAS North Island San Diego CA from November 1977 until November 1980...a long time ago in a Navy far..far away...
