    South Carolina Army National Guard helicopters, specifically a UH-60 Black hawk and a CH-47 Chinook, conduct aerial, water-bucket operations on the Table Rock and Persimmon Ridge wildfires, Pickens County, South Carolina March 23, 2025. The end-of-day totals for the two National Guard helicopters show approximatively 150 water drops completed and nearly 48,000 gallons of water delivered in support of the South Carolina Forestry Commission, on March 23rd. Moving forward the number of aircraft will increase to two UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters from the 1-111th General Support Aviation Battalion, 59th Aviation Troop Command, and two CH-47 Chinook helicopters from the 2-238th General Support Aviation Battalion, 59th Aviation Troop Command assigned to the ongoing wildfires response effort, pending adverse weather conditions.
