A CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter assigned to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 166 (Reinforced) releases flares during a Marine air-ground task force demonstration for Tiger Cruise passengers aboard USS Tarawa, an amphibious assault ship on its last leg of deployment from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, to San Diego. Tiger Cruise is a Navy-sponsored program in which friends or family members of sailors and Marines ride a ship during its last week of deployment. Tarawa and the embarked 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit are on a regularly scheduled deployment to the Western Pacific in support of maritime security operations and the global war on terrorism.
