This photograph showcases the United States Army Square Dance Team, also known as the "Chickasaw Helicopter Squad," performing with a Sikorsky H-19D helicopter in 1956. The team, which was initially based at Fort Sill in Oklahoma and later moved to Fort Rucker in Alabama from 1951 to 1962, showcases a unique blend of military aviation and folk dance traditions. The team members, all soldiers, are seen here in their military uniforms, with one boy standing proudly beside the Sikorsky H-19D helicopter, which was a workhorse of the US military during the 1950s and 1960s. The helicopter, with its distinctive twin-engine design and distinctive "Chickasaw" insignia, adds an intriguing element to the square dance routine. Square dancing was a popular pastime in the US military during the mid-20th century, and the Army Square Dance Team took this tradition to new heights by incorporating helicopters into their performances. The team traveled extensively, demonstrating their unique act at various military bases, air shows, and public events across the country. This photograph captures a moment in time when innovation and tradition came together in a memorable and entertaining way. The United States Army Square Dance Team and their Sikorsky H-19D helicopter represent a fascinating chapter in military aviation history, showcasing the ingenuity and spirit of the men and women who served during this era.
