U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Andrew Funesmelara, left, and Lance Cpl. Averi Burke, both fixed-wing mechanics with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 542, wait on the flight line at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida, Sept. 14, 2023. The Naval Weapon System Evaluation Program allowed VMFA-542 to safely conduct the loading and firing of live missiles at threat-realistic targets to test the squadron's ability, flexibility, and procedures while repositioned in unfamiliar locations. VMFA-542 is a subordinate unit of 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, the aviation combat element for II Marine Expeditionary Force. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Christopher Hernandez)
