Philippine Air Force departing a secured area

Mindanao, Philippines

This photo dedicated to all the hardworking Philippine Air Force men and women!

Location: Shhh. Secret!

Tail # 25653 (?)

Note the following:
- banking turn as the chopper takes off
- bits of visible leafy debris in the air as the chopper lifts off the ground
- thick jetwash arching past the tail boom as the chopper rises from within lush foliage
- machine gun hanging out the door with operator sitting behind it looking forward
- lucky airman who gets to sit by that door
