A 'one-stop shop': Marine wing support squadrons provide HA/DR support
Article Abstract:
The Marine wing support squadron (MWSS) is usually considered the Marine aircraft wing's (MAW's) principal source for combat logistics that provides aviation ground support (AGS) to a Marine aircraft group. But the engineer, motor transport, medical, life support and surface distribution capabilities of the MWSS make it a true multipurpose squadron in humanitarian assistance/disaster relief (HA/DR) missions.

Article Abstract:
The fundamental principle of the American system of government is 'the separation of church and state' which in no way precludes God in one's own way, belonging to the religion of his choice, or practicing no religion. One such relationship between the 'padre' and the commanding officer (CO) is presented.
