While a majority of the Third Infantry Division is headed to Iraq their Aviation Brigade is going to Afghanistan.
Today that unit began to pack up their helicopters.
Not an easy feat, as they have to fly them first from Hunter Army Airfield to the Georgia Ports.
Then before being loaded onto the ships, the blades on the helicopters need to be folded down.
The soldiers themselves are set to deploy later this month.
