Cpl. Michael Wilkinson, ordnance technician with Marine Attack Squadron 211, ensures Mark 82 bombs are properly secured on one of the squadron’s AV-8B Harriers at the Yuma Proving Ground Dec. 9, 2009. The squadron prepared for future deployments by using the airfield to simulate a forward operating base’s airstrip, to reloads live ordnance on the aircraft while it is still running. “It was a good exercise to bring the ordnance shop in as a team, rather than individuals,” said Wilkinson. The squadron is based at the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Ariz.
