U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Jeremy Kosick, 816th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron instructor loadmaster, watches as container delivery system bundles deploy from a C-17 Globemaster III during a airdrop mission over Afghanistan, May 10, 2018. For the first combat airdrop mission in over 18 months by a C-17, the aircraft transported troops and cargo to forward operating locations throughout the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility in support of Operation Freedom Sentinel mission. The 816th EAS, part the 385th Air Expeditionary Group and a tenant unit at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, is responsible for undertaking this complex mission that represents a lifeline to those troops needing basic supplies on the ground.
