The Massachusetts Air National Guard supported a local fire department yesterday to contain a fire on Tully Mountain, north central MA. Picked up water in Packard Heights pond about 1/2 mile from the mountain. Sling holds 400 gallons. They’re coming back again today since the fire is smoldering underground.

I'm pretty sure that's a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter.

Thank you for your service!

It certainly is a Blackhawk, those things fly over here all the time.
 
And what its carrying is known as a Bambi Bucket. They come in varying sizes depending on the capabilities of the aircraft that will be carrying.
 
The photo is impressive, too.
