Bangladeshi men and U.S. Marines pass boxes of food from hand-to-hand as they unload a U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Sea Stallion helicopter in Barisal, Bangladesh, on Dec. 3, 2007. The amphibious assault ship USS Kearsarge (LHD 3) and embarked 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) are conducting humanitarian assistance/disaster relief efforts in response to Bangladesh's request for assistance after Tropical Cyclone Sidr struck their coast on Nov. 15, 2007. The storm killed over 3,000 people and has left several hundred thousand homeless. The Department of Defense effort is part of a larger United States response coordinated by the U.S. Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development. The helicopter is attached to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 261.
