CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq – Pre-positioned at a landing zone here because of inclement weather at their base Camp Taqaddum, two CH-46E Sea Knight helicopters standby for possible casualty evacuation missions July 2.  This operation marked the first time the helicopters and their crews, assigned to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 364 “Purple Foxes,” 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing (FWD), used the landing zones for a more rapid aerial response to those injured in the battlefield.  (Official U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
