By Aaron Humes: In the skies over Belize last Wednesday, a Marine Corps CH-53E Tremendous Stallion helicopter conducted aerial refueling with a KC-130J multi-mission tactical tanker from Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 234.

The Hercules helicopter is conducting coaching and engineering initiatives hand-in-hand with companion nation navy members in Latin America and the Caribbean throughout their deployment to the area, which coincides with hurricane season.

The CH-53E is a flexible machine used for amphibious assault and long-range insertion, delivering troops, automobiles, and provisions. This speedy resupply automobile continues to be one of the crucial used plane in the U.S
Navy air arsenal.

A refueling job in the air can be a particularly tough and harmful job but this one passed without incident.
