Joint Operational Access Exercise 13-03 - C-130 Airland over Mackall Army Airfield
1st Combat Camera Squadron
Video by Brandi Hansen
July 1, 2013 | 5:02
The 39th Airlift Squadron, 317th Airlift Group, Dyess Air Force Base, TX, performed an airland mission delivering Humvees to Mackall Army Airfield at Fort Bragg, NC, June 25, 2013 in support of Joint Operational Access Exercise (JOAX) 13-03. JOAX is a seven-day integrated effort between the 82nd Airborne Division and its Air Force partners. JOAX synchronizes the planning and execution of a large-scale forcible entry into hostile areas; securing sufficient freedom of movement while facing anti-access and area-denial capabilities of our enemy. The unified training brings together two Infantry Brigade Combat Teams, six Air Force Air Wings, and support elements from Fires and Aviation Brigade and other enablers along with the Division headquarters in order to prove the force multiplying value of joint operations (U.S. Air Force video by Senior Airman Brandi Hansen/Released) Available in high definition.
