What's odd is we typically have had near daily overflights of single and sometimes double military helos, never transponding, plus occasional transport or Osprey (once or twice a year). But June has been comparatively quiet.
We're in a very rural, wooded area and I suspect they use our place as a nav waypoint. Helos are nearly always Blackhawks although sometimes Chinooks. They're low enough to identify the model easily but mil markings are very hard to read without pulling out binoculars.
Going to see if I can catch some with binocs and figure out what units they're attached to. I'm assuming WVNG, although my digging hasn't been able to confirm those assets are part of our local NG units.
