    U.S. Army paratroopers assigned to 173rd Airborne Brigade, descend onto Juliet Drop Zone in Pordenone, Italy, Oct. 19, 2016, as part of one of the largest airborne operations known as Peacemaster Unity. Hundreds of paratroopers from the Hungarian army’s 2nd Special Forces Regiment, Polish 6th Airborne Brigade, Romania’s 6th Special Operations Brigade, and the U.S. Army’s 173rd Airborne Brigade, are taking part in Peacemaster Unity, which is being held over the course of four days. The combined exercise demonstrates the multinational capacity building of the airborne community and the airborne allied nations collectively. The 173rd Airborne Brigade is the U.S. Army Contingency Response Force in Europe, capable of projecting ready forces anywhere in the U.S. European, Africa or Central Commands' areas of responsibility within 18 hours.
