1st Combat Aviation Brigade
150924-A-PM527-234
As part of the 1st Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Infantry Division’s Defense Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Response Force mission, air load teams configured for transport and loaded two UH-60M Black Hawk helicopters aboard a C-5A Galaxy Strategic airlifter Sept. 24 and 25 at Salina Municipal Airport, Salina, Kansas.
The success of the air load team training exercise was facilitated by the assistance of the crewmembers and load master of the U.S. Air Force Reserve Command, which provided a realistic training environment for both the Soldiers and Airmen over the two day training event.
The training lays the groundwork for the brigade’s upcoming unannounced emergency deployment readiness exercise that will assess the brigade’s ability to rapidly conduct live air load operations if called on to deploy to support the U.S. Army Northern Command Joint Task Force Civil Support, which anticipates, plans and prepares for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear response operations.
