Jeff Rhodes landed at Ambrose Elementary School at 9 a.m., and students were provided with an up-close opportunity to view the helicopter. Rhodes, whose air unit is responsible for covering 75 counties in Georgia, discussed with the children the various dutiees and services of air patrol, including search and rescue and fugitive apprehension.
