Transferred from its original squadron HMLA-167 into HMM_365 reinforced, this Huey was eventually stricken on 3 March 2012 from US Marine Corps inventory. It was first stored at 309th AMARG from 1 December 2011 to 19 September 2013 and then moved to the US Customs and Border Patrol as as N7272N and based at Davis-Monthan AFB (AZ). It was deployed to Kandahar from late February up to November 2008. HMM-365/r prepared themselves from late March for a fierce battle, Operation Azada Woza, a fight against a Taliban stronghold in Garmsir.
