A U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 162 (Reinforced), drops off Marines with Alpha Company, 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion, during helocast water insert training on Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, Feb. 14, 2023. Helocasting is an airborne technique that allows Marines to stealthily insert from a helicopter into any body of water, subsequently utilizing Combat Rubber Raiding Craft to conduct amphibious beach reconnaissance and raids. Assisting in this training shows the capability of the MEU to conduct an insert of ground forces by sea. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Rafael Brambila-Pelayo)
