Capt. Derek Garden, an operations officer and Lt. Col. Matthew T. Mowery, the commanding officer of Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 267 prepare to take off for the final flight of the unit’s last AH-1W Super Cobra at Marine Corps Air Station, Camp Pendleton, Calif., March 23.
Mowery, 41, from Troup, Texas, flew the aircraft around base before landing it at HMLA-169 and passing off the logbook to their commanding officer. “It’s been a success story for 25-plus years, and I was just proud to be part of that,” said Mowery, 41, from Troup, Texas. “For me, this is the end of an era.”
