Marine Corps "Cargo Wenches".... Who knew?

[Old R.O.]

Good article from the 3rd Marine Air Wing about recovering a Brit helo using a CH-53E.

Clicky

One thing I found out upon reading the article, was that the USMC has wenches (wiki link... it's the top definition...) to move their cargo around... Who knew?

Hopefully the Gunny who wrote the article is scrambling for a dictionary about now...

If they're like all the other women in the Marine Corps Ive seen... Ill pass.

I would have liked to have seen that CH-47 getting hauled off by the '53!!
