Friday Photos: Joint Training

I've been distracted observing the Sea Base operation off Liberia, not sure how I missed these recently released joint training pictures.


STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. (Feb. 14, 2008) An Army Reserve CH-47D helicopter assigned to the 159th Aviation Regiment in Fort Eustis, Va., lifts an 11-meter rigid-hull inflatable boat (RHIB) as special warfare combatant-craft crewmen use a ladder to board the aircraft during an evolution of maritime external air transportation system along the Pearl River. The aircraft is capable of lifting and transporting the special operations craft long distances over land or water, saving time and fuel.
