In 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower – away on vacation – was urgently needed back at the White House. What would have been a two-hour motorcade trip was reduced to a seven-minute helicopter ride courtesy of Marine Helicopter Squadron One (HMX-1). On that day, HMX-1 earned its most prestigious of missions – direct support of the President of the United States.

During this exclusive tour of the hangar and aircraft used by the President and Vice President, you'll experience:

• Introductory video in the HMX-1 ready room that covers the history and mission of HMX-1 followed by Q and A time
•  Tour of the cage hangar where you'll view the "White Top Fleet" of aircraft used to transport the President of the United States
• Inside look at HMX-1 "White Top" and MV-22 Osprey (Pending Availability)
• Visit to the HMX-1 Gift Shop where Members can purchase exclusive HMX-1 memorabilia (cash or check only)
• Parking will be prearranged for MOSCDC members attending and email will be sent with directions prior to the event
