They're working a group of missing hikers in the GWNF on TG 19 right now. They've apparently been missing since approx 1745 when they lost cell service with the group who were lost. They think his battery is dead. This is in Rockingham County somewhere near the VA/WV line.

As a note of interest for those who might be interested because I haven't seen anything about it before 775 is apparently the VSP chopper or one of them. He is en-route to the scene to conduct an aerial search at this time. VSP 136 is IC.

Probably will lose it from where I'm at once the helicopter drops down closer to the ground for the search so someone north might want to pick it up.

FWIW-Am getting the operation on TG Culpepper 2. They are trying to get coordinates on the lost persons cell phone, but co-ordinates are not matching up correctly right now. The chopper has the lost ones on the FLEER.

Good to know, I've lost them. I know before I did though there was a problem with 136 giving them incorrect coordinates and 775 was requesting him to provide correct ones to him in one of two formats as the coordinates he had been given took him off a ways into WV as well as being unfamiliar to the pilot.
