The United States Marine Corps needs to be able to get to any location as quickly as possible in as short of a period of time as possible. One of the main ways in which this is made possible is through the use of a helicopter. The helicopter crews have the ability to bring supplies to those in need as well as to extricate crews, land crews and defend locations. It is the reason why the USMC helicopter specialist is so important.
