Aircrew from Joint Base Charleston participates in Coyote Freedom 400 on a range near Nellis AFB, Nev., December 9, 2017. Coyote Freedom 400 is one of approximately 38 missions that comprise the U.S. Air Force Weapons School Integration (WSINT) phase. WSINT is the capstone for the six-month USAF Weapons School course. All students have been learning, evolving and building up to what they will experience in the last month of school. One of the mobility portions of WSINT is a simulated mass Joint Forcible Entry mission. More than 40 aircraft participated, though, due to range restrictions, there were few actual paratrooper drops.(U.S. Air Force video by Senior Airman James Merriman) More
