    A helicopter lifts ten Soldiers from the ground during Special Patrol Insertion Extraction System (SPIES) 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.
