American troops on the ground in Afghanistan have guardian angels looking out for them from above. Marine Corporal Liz Cisneros takes us to Forward Operating Base Edinburgh, where Marine Light Helicopter Squadron 369 close air support teams, made up of a UH-1Y Huey and an AH-1W Super Cobra, patrol the skies. There missions range from providing reconnaissance support to escorting medical evacuations. Soundbites include Marine Corporal Josey Chambers - Aircrew. Produced by Cpl. Liz Cisneros.
