    Hawaii Marine HMT-301 Volume 28, Number 11 March 18, 1999 Volleyball A-5 B-1 HMH-463 comes home Cpl. Barry Melton Combat Correspondent Marines from Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463 returned home to Kaneohe Bay March 7 after participating in two combined-arms exer- cises at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif. Training at 29 Palms gave the Marines an opportunity to work with F/A18 fighter attack aircraft; CH-46, CH-53E and UH-1 helicopters, and the chance to perform as a Marine Air Ground Task Force by training with the infantry, said Sgt. Maj. Art Taylor, HMH-463 sergeant major. Flying at 29 Palms also offered the Marines new challenges, said Taylor, as they had to overcome desert sand and cold and windy condi- tions. "It was a lot of good training for our Marines," said Taylor. "We have a lot of young guys who have never been anywhere, so this was a good time for them to get off the island and work with other units." "We don't deploy, so CAX is a way to build our combat strategy," said 1st. Lt. Scott Volkert, schedule writer and ground training officer with HMH-463. "It's a goddway to improve our combat readiness." "They handled themselves as Marines and they took care of the mis- sion," Taylor added. "Nobody got hurt and we all came back." According to Taylor, the Marines performed with excellence during Photo by Lance Cpl. David Salazar their time in California. Lance Cpl.
