EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring sight of a RAF Chinook helicopter taking off on a dawn mission over Helmand, Afghanistan. The silhouette of the powerful aircraft against the backdrop of the rising sun creates a striking image that symbolizes strength and determination. The photograph showcases a Royal Air Force Chinook Mk2 from 1310 flight as it prepares to embark on its mission from Camp Bastion airfield in Helmand province. This particular aircraft is part of the Joint Helicopter Force (AFGHANISTAN), also known as JHF (A), which is a deployed tri-Service unit from the Joint Helicopter Command. Its main objective is to provide tactical mobility, reconnaissance, and Aviation Fires support to both the UK task force in Helmand Province and the multinational force of Regional Command (South). As this remarkable machine takes flight, it represents more than just an impressive piece of equipment; it embodies hope for those serving in Operation Herrick - an essential campaign aimed at bringing stability and security to Afghanistan. The dedication and bravery exhibited by these servicemen are evident as they carry out their duties amidst challenging circumstances. Photographer POA (Phot) Mez Merrill has skillfully captured this momentous occasion, showcasing not only his talent but also paying tribute to all those involved in this vital operation. Through his lens, we are reminded of the unwavering commitment displayed by our armed forces as they work tirelessly towards achieving peace and prosperity in Afghanistan's troubled region.
