VF, the picture of the youngster in the green jacket, and more particularly, the concerned look on his face, suggested that he might be prime recruiting material for helicopter pilot school.

As the ABC Correspondent Harry Reasoner wrote in part:

"That's why being a helicopter pilot is so different from being an airplane pilot, and why in generality airplane pilots are open, clear-eyed, buoyant, extroverts. And helicopter pilots are brooders, introspective anticipators of trouble.
They know if something bad has not happened it is about to."
