A CH-53E Super Stallion from Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 465, Marine Aircraft Group 16, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, lifts an external cargo load to a forward operating base in Western Iraq, April 20. The helicopter used a dual point hook system to provide stability to the load and protect the helicopter from the sway of the load during flight.
