Bustillos and Armstrong helped prepare and load a 9,000-pound shipment of ammunition, food, and water headed to 1st Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment. During these types of missions, the helicopter comes within 10 feet of the ground as Marines latch the pallet of supplies onto its hook. The supplies will fly underneath the helicopter to their destination.
