unloading three HH60 helicopters from a C5 Galaxy
CAMP LEMONNIER, DJIBOUTI (Jan. 25, 2013) -Members of the 22nd Airlift Squadron from Travis Air Force Base and members of the new 303rd Emergency Rescue Squadron here, finalize a successful mission after unloading three HH60 helicopters from a C5 Galaxy. The squadron is replacing the Heavy Marine Helicopter 464th Detachment A, who has been handling the mission here for the past ten years. The arrival of the 303rd will better equip Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa for personnel recovery due to the helicopters’ capabilities. This is one more tool that CJTF-HOA uses to be the preferred security partner of choice in an increasingly secure, stable, and developing East Africa.
