Staff Sgt. Alaster M. Anderson, a jumpmaster with 1st Battalion, 503rd Parachute Infantry Regiment, leads a class from inside of a mock cabin for a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter March 18 at Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany. Part of sustained airborne training, the class ensured paratroopers knew and would remember the exact steps required to safely exit a helicopter. The 173rd Airborne Brigade is the Army’s Contingency Response Force in Europe, providing ready forces to deploy anywhere in the U.S. European, Africa and Central Commands areas of responsibility in less than 18 hours.
