A page from "Pararescue 50 Years Plus" recounts the loss of HH-53 'Jolly 54' and its five-man crew, shot down over Laos on 30 June 1970 while attempting to rescue a downed OV-10 pilot. It also traces the decades-long postwar search that ultimately located and recovered the crew's remains in the early 1990s.
