Salvador (center), an avionics technician with Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 775, Marine Aircraft 41, 4th Marine Division, gives a "coyote salute" with her fellow Marines as one of the squadron's AH-1W Super Cobras takes off during Integrated Training Exercise 4-18 at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, California, on June 22, 2018.
