A United States Customs and Border Protection Air and Marine Operations UH-1N helicopter settles in to land in the rough terrain of Big Bend National Park in West Texas on Dec. 6, 2019. The flight was conducted by the Alpine Air Unit, which falls under AMO's El Paso Air Branch using an upgraded Bell UH-1N Iroquois helicopter. Big Bend Sector includes over one-quarter of the United States' southern border and use of helicopters for air-mobility operations to move Border Patrol agents and supplies in and out of the areas’ harsh terrain has increased apprehensions and seizures of narcotics.
