Two CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters sit in pieces in Hangar 101 March 17, 2015, while they are cleaned for an upcoming inspection later this month. Marines attached to Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463 prepared five aircraft to send to Marine Rotational Force Darwin, Australia, later this year. It takes 1,500 man-hours per aircraft to make the aircraft inspection-ready. ( Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Sarah Dietz) Marines work to send aircraft to Australia 150313-M-LV138-990
