Exercise Real Thaw 15 was a Portuguese air force exercise designed to provide tactical training of Portuguese and allied partners for real world battlefield scenarios. One E-3A, with its multinational crew, participated together with Danish, Spanish, Dutch and American units. The main objectives of the exercise were the training of tactical air transport, personnel recovery and various fighter operations. The exercise was also a good opportunity to check the interoperability between the various participants, which included Air Force, Navy and Army units. The exercise was held on Beja Airfield in the southern part of Portugal and took place from Feb. 23 until March 6, 2015. (Photo by Tech. Sgt. Jessica Callahan)
