 And now, for your U.S. Army Works Live! Aviators from the 12th Combat Aviation Brigade, and soldiers from the 173rd Infantry Brigade Combat Team Airborne, along with Air Force F-16s from the 510th Fighter Squadron, stationed in Aviano, Italy, joined together in Graffenbeer, Germany, to conduct a combined arms-live fire. We have done exercises in the past year or so where it was just a ground maneuver, a firing-live ammunition combined with us, but not with Air Force and indirect fire assets at the same time. The exercise helped members of the 12th Cav in their preparation for deployment later this year to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. The integration of air assets, indirect fires, and direct fires is absolutely something that paratroopers and soldiers downrange are going to encounter. To build that scenario in a training environment is priceless.
