Marine One takes off on the South Lawn as @FLOTUS heads to Walter Reed for her skin lesion procedure. She is joined by @POTUS, who often accompanies his wife of 45 years for medical issues.

@FLOTUS steps off the Marine One helicopter after arriving at the Walter Reed military hospital in Bethesda, Maryland, for surgery to remove a potentially cancerous lesion from above her right eye. @POTUS accompanied her.
