    Military personnel are gathered on what appears to be an airfield tarmac, with a pilot in a flight suit and tactical vest shaking hands with a U.S. Army soldier wearing OCP camouflage and a campaign hat. The interaction appears to be a formal greeting or post-mission debrief near a military aircraft. Multiple soldiers and aircrew members are visible in the background.

    1st Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment, Commander Lt. Col. Margaret Stick (right), shakes hands with pilot Wes Irvin after receiving an AH-64E Apache helicopter on Fort Bragg, Aug. 14, 2019. 1st Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment, 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade receives their initial fielding of the new Echo Model Apache, replacing the previous generation's Delta Apache helicopter. While not the first in the Army, they are the first on Fort Bragg to receive these new aircraft. The AH-64E is designed to increase power margins, reliability and lethality to ensure the Apache is a viable combat fighting force in Large Scale Combat Operations. The AH-64E is considered the bridging strategy to Future Vertical Lift. The unit currently has Apache aviators in training to fly the new aircraft, and those pilots will soon bring this dynamic capability to the Global Response Force. Equipment modernization is a key component to winning tomorrow's fight, and the 82nd Airborne Division is leading the way in this effort. (Photo by Staff Sgt. Sharon Matthias)
