    Ten Soldiers, including Pvt. 2nd Class Melanie Rollings, a U.S. Army culinary specialist (92G) in the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) from Fort Wayne, Indiana, lift off the ground on a rope attached to a UH-60 Blackhawk during SPIES, Special Patrol Insertion Extraction System, training. SPIES is an air assault tactic used for inserting or extracting Soldiers in areas where a helicopter landing zone cannot be established. Instructors from the Sabalauski Air Assault School and pilots from the 101st Combat Aviation Brigade provided SPIES and Landing Zone/Pick Up Zone training for every battalion in the division during Operation LETHAL EAGLE. Operation LETHAL EAGLE is a 21-day, division-wide field training exercise.
