Gabrielle Rasa, a crew chief assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 364 (Reinforced), 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, conducts an equipment check before conducting a refueling operation ahead of a military free-fall insertion by the Maritime Raid Force in support of a simulated raid during Realistic Urban Training at Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona, May 27, 2026.
