A radio operator with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit conducts a communications check while a CH-53 Super Stallion with VMM-365 prepares for takeoff. Radio operators ensured instant, continuous communication to leaders while Marines and sailors conducted surveys of potential beach landing sites and airfields for upcoming humanitarian and disaster relief operations to assist the Republic of Haiti following Hurricane Matthew, a Category IV storm that passed through the area causing flooding, destroying vital infrastructure within the country and displacing Haitian local nationals.
