The Idaho Army National Guard treated Angie, her husband Walt, and her mother Dona to a photo flight on September 17, 2003 on a Blackhawk helicopter to film Apache helicopters during live-fire training. This flight was to obtain reference material for the Blackhawk and Apache helicopter paintings to be completed. Shown in the photo are Walt (Angie’s husband), Lt. Col Garshak, the flight crew, Angie and her mother, Dona. A big “Thank You” to a wonderful crew and an exciting flight.
