In 1991 after Operation Desert Storm this helicopter was found in pristine condition, amongst destroyed aircraft and burnt out buildings, at Kuwait international airport. It was shipped back to the 3rd MAW at MCAS El Toro and is now part of the super Flying Leathernecks museum at Miramar. This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
