True, but they have been a part of the fleet for a while. If they are Gray then we know for sure that they are there for other reasons than shuffle VIP's around.
Presidential Ospreys are painted in the same/similar green as the presidential H-3 helo. Some of the Ospreys in photos I saw were gray, matching active military, non-presidential paint schemes.
OK, great! I did not see the Gray aircraft and that changes things for the better. I only saw vids of the Presidential aircraft as in this video.
Gray=Awesome.
Thanks!
Look up HMX-1. That is the Presidential helicopter squadron that is based in
Quantico, Va. The Ospreys there are all green. They are tasked with transporting
high level Govt Officials. They also maintain Marine-1 which is the Helo in the bottom pic or a "white top". That is the helo that flies the POTUS. They are all active Duty Marines. They do not have any specific MOS different from a similar Marine Squadron of the same Type-Model aircraft. Only difference is the Marines assigned there are volunteers and have been cleared with a Yankee White Top Secret level clearance if they work directly with the POTUS section of the squadron or the "White Side", all others that are pending a clearance work on and maintain the green MV-22s or what is called the "Green Side".....
Of course it's the Marines but their MOS is different than those who are in the Gray Osprey's. Here they are shuttling people from AF1.
If there are Gray Ospreys then we are in luck.
Yeah, just took a break for the afternoon away from any news and fell down a YT Rabbit hole of POTUS videos and came across this vid which I have never seen.
Anyway, if people wish I will delete. It's just that I saw so many videos of these type of Ospreys flying through DC and people claiming the Marines are there and I want them to be there but, anywya, I;l stop rambling.
Umm sir?.......it says United States marine corps on the side....

But 10 Ospreys certainly does.
Yes true, I did not see that there were 10 there.

Appreciate that.
