On display in conjunction with a change of command ceremony at the National Naval Aviation Museum. The rotor blades were removed in order to move the aircraft into place. This is an active USN aircraft and not part of the museum collection. Although marked as a USMC aircraft, it is actually assigned to the USN. As USN, USMC, and USCG flight students go through training together some aircraft are marked as Marine or Coast Guard to honor those branches of Naval Aviation.
