"44s"?

I had visions of S-61s accompanied by three or four Ravens setting off into the stormy weather, the smaller machines trailing fuel hoses to keep the big turbine fully fuelled for maximum range, then peeling off to make it back to base and wishing the big bird success as they did so.

My respect for the crews grows with news of every exploit. Well damn done.
