Summary
Marines helocast from a CH-53E Super Stallion Nov. 5 at White Beach Naval Facility during the scout swimmers course. Helocasting requires the Marines to hover 10 feet above the water in an aircraft and jump out with all their gear. Helocasting provides another option to insert scout swimmers or a reconnaissance element so they can use an air asset to get half way to your objective area. The Marines are with various units across III Marine Expeditionary Force. The aircraft is assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265 (Reinforced), 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit.
