In preparation for the 2010 National Scout Jamboree, a Black Hawk UH-60 prepares to releases water from a "Bambi bucket," into Thunder Lake July 23, as part of a simulated exercise intended to prepare emergency responders for real life fires. The crew of the helicopter is part of Joint Task Force National Scout Jamboree. Joint Task Force National Scout Jamboree plans and executes all DoD operations and activities in support of the Boy Scouts of America at the 2010 National Scout Jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill. The JTF's goal is to provide professional military support and a safe and secure environment for Scouts and visitors during the event.
