    The image shows the interior of a large military transport aircraft, likely a C-130 or C-17, illuminated by green night-vision compatible lighting. Several military personnel in full combat gear are visible on the cargo ramp/floor, appearing to be preparing for or conducting a nighttime airborne operation. The scene is predominantly dark with the green lighting casting an eerie glow on the metal cargo floor.

    U.S. Army Soldiers, assigned to the East Africa Response Force (EARF), 101st Airborne Division, exit a C-130J Super Hercules, assigned to the 75th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron, at Manda Bay Airfield, Kenya, on Jan. 5, 2020. The EARF deployed to the Manda Bay Airfield, Kenya, Jan. 5, to augment security to secure the airfield after an attack by al-Shabaab terrorists. The EARF is a rapid deployment force with the ability to protect U.S. citizens and diplomatic facilities, non-combatant evacuation operations, humanitarian assistance, disaster relief operations, and other missions as directed.
