A scout sniper from Battalion Landing Team 2/6, 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, fires his MK-11 sniper rifle from a CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter, Sept. 27, 2009, while flying over the Gulf of Aden. The snipers practiced firing at floating targets from different places inside the helicopter during the training. The 26th MEU and Iwo Jima Strike Group are currently deployed in the Central Command area of responsibility. (Official USMC photo by Cpl. Aaron J. Rock) (Released)
