"Composite flight: A Marino Aircraft Group-16 CH-53A Sea Stallion helicopter prepares to pick up an A-4 Skyhawk for transportation to Da Hang. Once the Marines clear the area, the chopper lifts the attack jet and heads towards Da Nang. The aircraft will be repaired and overhauled in Iwakuni, Japan, before returning to Marine Air Base in Chu Lai for missions over North and South Vietnam."
