Senior Airman Nick Church, 437th Airlift Wing loadmaster, inspects cargo prior to take off June 6, 2016. The cargo was dropped as part of Exercise Swift Response. In addition to participating in Exercise Swift Response, AMC air crews completed the first operational drop of expendable platforms. In the past, heavy cargo was dropped using metal heavy equipment platforms which needed to be recovered. The expendable platforms allow the paratroopers, once on the ground, to
detach the vehicles from the platform quickly without having to worry about
recovering the platform. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. William A. O'Brien)
