No mention of CasEvac???

[edit]

I think it should be duly noted that HMM-161 was the first Marine squadron that was dedicated to the CasEvac mission, and started off the 3 squadrons that now rotate in and out doing CasEvac 161 to 268 to 364 then back to 161, for roughly a 6 month stay in TQ per squadron. The crosses painted on the side of 55 [1] means that for each one of those crosses was a successful CasEvac mission. So I find this pretty sad (since the page has obviously be edited in 2007) that September 2007 marked their 4th return from Iraq and the 3rd time being dedicated to CasEvac and nothing is to be mentioned of this serious role in Iraq.

Still operating a CH-53?

[edit]

I photographed a CH-53 with VMM-161 markings at the Dubai Air Show 2017. Mztourist (talk) 07:59, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
