    A CH-53E Super Stallion with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 462 “Heavy Haulers” stationed aboard Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, Calif., lowers a Bambi Bucket into Pulgas Lake at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., May 3. Water from the 900-gallon bucket is transported to a simulated fire drop zone and used to create a fire line, preventing a fire’s advancement.
