German soldiers, part of an extrication team lower to the ground with an aircraft hoist while latched on to a jungle penetrator during rescue hoist training with soldiers from Task Force Lobos, 1st Air Cavalry Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division, July 16. The purpose of the training was to familiarize the extrication team with usage of the aircraft hoist, since insertion via the hoist can often times be the only option in certain austere locations within the mountainous terrain of Afghanistan. The training was a continuation of the budding partnership between the 1st ACB and the German military contingent in Regional Command North.
