What it Takes to Move a Mountain: The Regimental Air Assault

In a magnificent display of combat power, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing demonstrated its ability to lift a regiment of Marines and their equipment over long distances in a very short period of time in Southern California, Dec. 10, 2019.

They marched toward the distant sound of rotor blades. U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallions and MV-22B Ospreys with 3rd MAW waited on the horizon, ready to fulfill their role and extract the warriors following a training event that began with inserting Marines from 1st Marine Division.
