    U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Christopher Kissel, left, an infantry assault Marine with Expeditionary Operations Training Group, rappels from a UH-1Y Venom with Marine Light Attack Squadron 469 while Gunnery Sgt. Yani Vallesteros, a section fires chief with 3rd Air Naval Gun Liaison Company, U.S. Marine Corps Forces Reserves, belays him during a helicopter rope suspension technician (HRST) masters course at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, Dec. 11, 2019. The course provided the students the ability to conduct HRST techniques safely on their own, including special purpose insertion/extraction (SPIE) rigging, fast roping, and rappelling from helicopters, enabling their units to be able to insert and extract anywhere, even when a landing zone is unavailable.
