07/11/2015: U.S. Marines assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 162 Reinforced, 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), train in air-delivered ground refueling (ADGR) at Fort Pickett VA., April 26, 2015.
The training was conducted to allow the Marines to be more proficient in refueling smaller aircraft, such as the UH-1Y Venom, from larger aircraft, such as the MV-22B Osprey.
The 26th MEU is conducting realistic urban training in preparation for deployment to the 5th and 6th Fleet area of responsibility later this year.
