MV-22 Ospreys Conduct Medical Evacuation
The 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) made history by using two MV-22B Ospreys, assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 263 (Reinforced), to conduct a ship-to-shore emergency medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) of a Sailor from USS Bataan (LHD 5) Jun. 25.

This is the first time the aircraft has been used to conduct such a mission from the sea.
