Cpl. Adam Lisa, the camp commandant non-commissioned officer in charge of the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward) compound, adjusts a tent pole as a group of Marines establish an expeditionary maintenance facility on the flight line, Aug. 21. Marines with 3rd MAW (Fwd) prepared the site for a CH-53E Super Stallion detachment from Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 266 (Reinforced), 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, so the Marines could bring their helicopters into Afghanistan from the United States on Air Force cargo aircraft, then assemble them and travel to Pakistan to provide humanitarian aid to the people suffering from massive flooding there. VMM-266 (Rein)'s temporary home here was constructed in about a day.
