    U.S. Marines with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron (HMH) 461 and Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron (MALS) 29 load a palette into a CH-53K King Stallion with an extended-boom forklift – military millennium vehicle at Marine Corps Air Station New River, North Carolina, June 7, 2023. The tail-to-tail transfer of supplies allowed distribution of sustainment in the minimum time period of vulnerability by reducing break-bulk requirements. U.S. Marines with 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW) experimented with dynamic, assault-support capabilities in a distributed-aviation environment. HMH-461 and MALS-29 are subordinate units of 2nd MAW, the aviation combat element of II Marine Expeditionary Force. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Adam Henke)
