Cpl. Hawken Helmandollar, a crew chief with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 161 “Greyhawks” and a Palmer, Alaska native, slides illuminating flares off the ramp of an MV-22B Osprey in support of another squadron’s integrated training exercise aboard Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif., Sept. 23. After the flares are pushed from the aircraft, a timer starts, and at a pre-determined altitude they ignite giving off light for pilots and Marines on the ground to get their bearing.
