Tips for Searching

Keyword Search

The Keyword Search button allows you to perform a general search across multiple fields for any catalog records online. Keyword searches use OR as the default connector between words (e.g. a search for Hanley Ranch will return records associated with Hanley OR Ranch). If you want to find records where both keywords are found, type in AND between the two words. To search for a specific phrase, be sure to put the phrase within quotes (e.g. "Rocky Pine Ranch"). You can also use the asterisk (*) as a wildcard (e.g. a search for histor* would come up with records containing history, histories, historical, etc.). Searches are not case sensitive.

Advanced Search

The Advanced Search button can help you be more specific with your search. You can search for a word or phrase within a particular search category or use multiple categories to further narrow down your search results. For example, searching White in the People field will bring up any records associated with a member of the White family, without having to sift through black & white photographs. You can also search People and Creator records through Advanced Search. Phrase searching with quotes and use of wildcards (*) are available in Advanced Search.

Random Images

The Random Images button is a great way to just browse the collection. Each Random Images page displays a random assortment of images from the records online. If something piques your interest, click the thumbnail to view a larger version of the image.

Catalog Searches (Archives / Photos / Libraries / Objects)

The catalog buttons can also help narrow down your search, by only searching with a selected catalog. If you only want to search for Photos, click the Photos button and type in your keyword(s) or phrase. You can also browse records within that catalog without performing a search. Phrase searching, wildcards (*) as well as AND/OR statements are available when performing catalog searches.

    The helo's skids were wider than the truck bed! Fortunately the Missouri Army National Guard had encountered this problem before and had welded up a special metal rack to fit onto the truck bed and contain the wider helicopter skids. All chained down with "Boomers". Additional nylon straps in place.

    Missouri Army National Guard Pilot CW3 Don C. Thomson (me). I'm also the Historian/Curator of the Seawolf Assn. I took a day of leave to come down, help with the loading, and represent the SEALs & Seawolves. I drove the truck driver to a hardware store to buy chains and "Boomers" as we couldn't get enough tension on the nylon straps.

    This helicopter was originally retained as an important full bird colonel in Missouri wanted to put it on a pole at the State Guard Headquarters. It thus became knows as "Ed's Sled" after sitting around for a few years. He had flown the B models in Vietnam and hisname is Ed. The problem was the Chief of Staff in Missouri wanted a UH-1H on the pole and he eventually won out.
