Soldiers with the 2nd Cavalry Regiment drive a Stryker armored vehicle just recently deployed from a U.S. Air Force C-17 during NATO exercise Steadfast Javelin II at Lielvarde Airbase, Latvia, Sept. 6, 2014. The Strykers were brought in by U.S. Air Force C-17s just hours after 500 paratroopers from the U.S. 173rd Airborne Brigade, the Royal Canadian Regiment and the Italian Folgore Brigade jumped in to seize the airfield. Steadfast Javelin II is a NATO exercise involving over 2,000 troops from 10 nations, and takes place across Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland. The exercise focuses on increasing interoperability and synchronizing complex operations between allied air and ground forces through airborne and air assault missions. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
