An MH-60S Knighthawk helicopter assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 26 approaches a simulated casualty during a Search and Rescue (SAR) exercise conducted in the Beaufort River, S.C. July 27. Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort tenant units worked side by side with the U.S. Navy, Naval Hospital Beaufort, Savannah Coast Guard and local first responders to conduct the exercise. The training was the first SAR exercise involving F-35B Lightning II pilots. It not only increased mission readiness for each unit involved, but also increased interoperability between military and civilian first responders. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Brittney Vella)
