    The CH-53D, one of the oldest aircraft in the Marine Corps, recently added a new trick to its arsenal in support of operations in Afghanistan, Aug. 17. The aircraft, from Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463, conducted rapid ground refueling of AH-1W Super Cobras, allowing the smaller attack helicopters to allow them to fly farther and longer on combat operations.
