Residents of the small town of Bar Harbor, on Mount Desert Island, Maine, are not unused to LifeFlights medical ambulance helicopters occasionally using the town’s ball field as a landing zone.

However, it was still a bit of a shock when a Marine Corps attack helicopter landed on the field while another Marine Corps chopper circled overhead on Saturday afternoon, Nov. 18.
