    Marines of Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 362, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward), touch the front tire of a CH-53D Sea Stallion during the final event of the Ugly Games. During this event, Marines put on their flak jackets and flight helmets then sprinted as a team to touch the Sea Stallion's tire. The competition was one of 10 events held during the event. The Marines have worked 65 days without a day off since their arrival in September and the squadron hosted the event to give Marines a break from their day-to-day work routine.

At least one additional blue training grenade is visible on the mat near the thrower.
