United
States Military Surface Ships: SSN 711 (USS SAN FRANCISCO)
Caption:
Pacific Ocean (Jan. 9, 2005) -- An MH-60S Knighthawk
helicopter, assigned to the "Providers" of
Helicopter Combat Support Squadron Five (HC-5),
transfers medical personnel to USS San Francisco (SSN
711) located south of Guam, following an underwater
collision, Jan. 8. Medical personnel were rushed to the
Los Angeles attack submarine once it was within range to
assist the ship's independent duty Corpsman in providing
urgent treatment to injured crew members. Regrettably,
Machinist Mate 2nd Class Allen Ashley died soon after
the medical team's arrival from massive head injuries.
