The description on the print states:
Hemet-Ryan Helitack Copter 301 is a UH-1H Super Huey based at Hemet Air Attack Base in Hemet, California. The crew consists of two pilots, four fire captains, two fire apparatus engineers, and 15 firefighters that are shared between the Helitack and Air Attack Base. Their primary responsibility is to respond to callouts for initial attack on wildfires and other emergencies. Copter 301 can deliver a 7-person helitack crew with firefighting hand tools and drop 325 gallons of water from a belly tank. The helicopter and crew may also be used in a number of other missions including air rescue, aerial ignition, cargo sling load, troop transport, reseeding operations, and mapping.
Hemet-Ryan Helitack responds to more than 100 fires per year in an area that encompasses north to Redlands, south to Fallbrook, west to Orange County and east to Palm Springs.
