"Ugly Angels" - a legacy of defending our country


Completing 60 years of service, Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 362, known as the 'Ugly Angels,' completed a memorial flight over Helmand province, Afghanistan, Aug. 9. The squadron was created in 1952 and holds the distinction of being the first Marine helicopter squadron to arrive in country during the Vietnam War.

I'm proud to say my brother Mike Sedrick is one the Ugly Angels. I am so proud of him and the other men and women fighting for our country. I would be remiss if I did not give a special nod to the families they leave behind who sacrifice silently in the background. THANK YOU all for your service, devotion and sacrifice!
