Tioman Island, off the coast of Malaysia
Wake Island, US Territory
Macao International Airport
Kuujjuaraapik, Quebec
This photo was taken by a soldier in Afghanistan of a helo rescue mission.  The pilot is a PA National Guard member who flies EMS choppers in civilian life.  Now how many people on the planet you reckon could set the ass-end of a chopper down on the rooftop of a shack, on a steep mountain ciff, probably under enemy fire, and hold it there while US soldiers load wounded men in the rear?
