stanchions and 12 litter straps. Each stanchion and
each strap has four litter support brackets attached to it.
This permits the installation of up to four tiers of litters.
Provisions are made for stowage of the litter poles at sta

for the stowage of litter straps in 12 containers above
the cabin ceiling.

troop seat support rail. Each litter strap is attached to
an adapter on the floor. A hook at the top of the strap is
attached to a horizontal bolt installed in the cabin ceiling.
