Paratroopers assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, and other units on Fort Bragg, walk out to a C-160 Transall, a German aircraft, on Pope Air Force Base on May 9. This is part of Operation Federal Eagle, an annual event in which German paratroopers and paratroopers from Fort Bragg cross-train on an airborne operation. The paratroopers exited from a C-160 Transall, a German aircraft, to land on Sicily Drop Zone. It is one way that the 2nd BCT and the 82nd ABN DIV work with other military forces to ensure a more efficient partnership with coalition forces when deployed. After the paratroopers landed on the drop zone, a ceremony was held by German jumpmasters to award German jump wings. For many paratroopers in the 2nd BCT this was their first time working with German forces.
