OK that link didn't work! And I have a Correction! The person was Sadam Hussein not Osama Bin Laden.
Let's try these links.

We have a local Chinook, actually more than one, so the wife and I went to the airport. There was one practicing hovering and other things but we found the hangar they have and stopped. There was a guy out on the ramp and we talked with him and we got into the hangar and out on the ramp for a tour. I have told my wife about working on and crewing on these. I know she sort of understood but didn't really fathom the overall size. Now she understands! No we didn't get to go for a ride but would have loved to! This is a D model and the interior was stripped out for weight as they are mainly used for fire fighting. But interestingly enough, there was a written message on the inside skin,"Osama Bin Laden sat here". Sorry picture of that was an afterthought.
Here is a link to the pictures, One of them has the Boeing data plate.Anyone here that can trace the aircraft history?https://imgur.com/pRqopbBhttps://imgur.com/7lbr6w7https://imgur.com/sxRk6mIhttps://imgur.com/bZZnrwrhttps://imgur.com/JyRBf5U
