Photo - EOD techs recovery

[Sweetbriar]

The caption for this photo says that EOD techs are being recovered, but I can't figure how they are getting up into the helo. Are they having to climb up a rope hand over hand? (Surely not, but I never can tell with y'all...)

Sorry, but the url changes when it's posted. I'll try again...

And it done it again. Hmmm. How about if I leave the www off?

It's on the second page of the navy.mil "Current Photos" aka "Around the Fleet", dated Aug 16 I think.

Looks like a ladder to me. Here try this link.

That looks a hell of a lot like a caving ladder side-on SS wirerope with SS tube rungs.

That is correct, it's a lot of fun....at least the first couple of times, after about three hours, you get sick of it......
