    Oregon Army National Guard Chief Warrant Officer-4 Don Ford, standarization instructor pilot (SIP) with Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 168th Aviation Regiment, navigational screen displays where water bucket drop targets are along the Columbia River, near Pendleton, Oregon. The CH-47 Chinook helicopter crew must successfully demonstrate their abilities to conduct a successfull line and spot drop on pre-determined targets, with at least 75-percent of the 2,000-pound bucket of water hitting the target. They were the first unit in the Oregon National Guard to be certified this year in preparation for the upcoming summer fire season. (Photo by Capt.
