CAMP RHINO, SOUTHERN AFGHANISTAN. An aviation ordnance marine from the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit (special operations capable) loads a rocket pod onto an AH-1W Super Cobra helicopter before an armed reconnaissance mission here. The 15th MEU (SOC) seized the airfield Nov. 25 to provide a forward operating base to support follow-on missions during operation Swift Freedom.
