WELCOME, I’M LANCE CPL JAZLYN BAKER WITH YOUR MARINE MINUTE!
U.S. MARINES WITH HEAVY HELICOPTER SQUADRON 361, 3RD MARINE AIRCRAFT WING, 1ST MARINE EXPEDITIONARY FORCE LIFTED A MEDIUM RANGE AIR DEFENSE RADAR FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER DURING SERVICE LEVEL TRAINING EXERCISE 4-25 AT MARINE CORPS AIR GROUND COMBAT CENTER, TWENTYNINE PALMS, CALIFORNIA.
THE LIFT WAS THE FIRST EVALUATION OF THE AIR TRANSPORTABILITY OF THE MRADR IN A REALISTIC TRAINING ENVIRONMENT.
WHILE MARINES PERFORM LIFT TRAINING IN THE DESERT, WE SHIFT OUR FOCUS TO THE EAST COAST WHERE MARINES AND OTHER U.S. UNIFORMED SERVICES EXECUTE EXTERNAL LIFTS AND HELOCASTING IN THE KEYS.
HELOCASTING IS AN AMPHIBIOUS INSERT METHOD WHERE TROOPS JUMP FROM AN AIRCRAFT INTO A BODY OF WATER AND EITHER SWIM TO SHORE OR TAKE A BOAT TO THEIR OBJECTIVE.
THAT’S YOUR MARINE MINUTE. FOR MORE STORIES VISIT MARINES.MIL AND ALL THE MARINE CORPS SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES.
SEMPER FIDELIS!
