EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Terry Moore from Stocktrek Images, we witness the intense preparation of OH-58D Kiowa pilots before embarking on a mission in Tikrit, Iraq. The image showcases two dedicated aviators meticulously running through their pre-flight checks at Camp Speicher's helipad. Against the backdrop of an expansive airbase, the vibrant red helicopter stands stationary with its rotor blades gleaming under the bright sunlight. The attention to detail is evident as these skilled pilots ensure that every aspect of their aircraft is armed and equipped for action. With determination shining in their eyes, they stand beside the cockpit, peering through the windshield into what lies ahead. This single object represents not only a powerful military machine but also symbolizes bravery and resilience. As nightfall approaches, these OH-58D Kiowa Warriors will take to the skies as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Their mission? To protect and serve alongside their comrades on the ground. The dynamic motion captured within this photograph hints at both anticipation and readiness for any challenges that may arise during their deployment. This extraordinary shot encompasses all elements necessary to convey a sense of duty and dedication exhibited by our brave men and women serving in uniform. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who defend our freedom while showcasing the power and beauty found within military aviation.
