Left side front view of the nose section on a US Marine KC-130 Refueling Plane from VMGR-352, El Toro, Marine Corps Air Station, California, at Belet Huen Field, Somalia. Two crew members from the KC-130 stand in front of the aircraft. In the background is a right side profile of a US Marine AH-1 "Cobra" helicopter which is receiving the fuel from the KC-130. Sand being blown up by the prop wash from the KC-130 is obstructing the view of the helicopter. The refueling allows the helicopters to return to escorting a food convoy (not shown) and preventing them from being robbed or harassed by Somali bandits. This mission is in direct support of Operation Restore Hope
