Approximately 400 U.S. service members and Royal Thai Armed Forces paratroopers flew and then jumped into Thailand as part of Exercise Cobra Gold 14 Feb. 15. Paratroopers with U.S. Army 4th Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division and U.S. Marine Corps traveled 19 hours directly from Alaska and jumped at 14,000 feet from five C-17 Globemaster IIIs. This training opportunity demonstrates the ability to project this unit anywhere around the world, quickly and with joint support. Exercise Cobra Gold 2014, now in its 33rd iteration, demonstrates the U.S. and the Kingdom of Thailand’s commitment to their long standing alliance, regional partnership, and prosperity and security in the Asia-Pacific Region. Also available in high definition.
