Caption:
C-17 Globemaster IIIs from the 437th and 315th airlift wings drop cargo at a remote airfield during a strategic brigade airdrop exercise involving a 13-ship formation Dec. 18 from Charleston Air Force Base, S.C. C-17s must be able to meet the Army's goal of airdropping a brigade's worth of troops and equipment (about 3,250 Soldiers and 3,450 tons of equipment). Charleston AFB aircraft currently account for half of the Air Force strategic brigade airdrop requirement. U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. William Greer (RELEASED)
