A Marine from Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 461 (Reinforced), 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit, helps wash down a CH-53E Super Stallion aboard USS Bataan, March 17. The wash down, a standard process to prevent foreign soil, agriculture and organisms from contaminating the U.S., marks the beginning of the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group and 22nd MEU's phased return home. Local leaders with the government of Haiti, the United Nations and non-governmental organizations took over primary responsibilities of humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations around Haiti.
