STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. (Feb. 14, 2008) -- An Army Reserve CH-47D,
assigned to the 159th Aviation Regiment based in Fort Eustis, Va.,
hovers over an 11-meter rigid-hull inflatable boat (RHIB) during a
maritime external air transportation system along the Pearl River in
Mississippi. Special warfare combatant-craft crewmen aboard the RHIB
secure the boat to the helicopter with specter slings and use a caving
ladder to board the aircraft. The CH-47D can transport the RHIB over
land or water. U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd
