U.S. Army Spc. Mario Clavel, a UH-60 Blackhawk crew chief assigned to Alpha Company “Aces,” 1st Battalion, 214th Aviation Regiment, part of 12th Combat Aviation Brigade, stops for a sunset portrait (UGH, the worst part of portraits is the caption… any rewrite recommendations are valued) following maritime operations over the Bulgarian coast of the Black Sea during exercise Swift Response, part of DEFENDER-Europe 21, May 5, 2021. Mustang suits, as Clavel is wearing, insulate a crew member’s body temperature should they egress out of the aircraft over water.
