Sam Carter, a C-130J Super Hercules loadmaster from the 123rd Airlift Wing, performs a preflight inspection during Operation Arctic Haven at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, April 24, 2024.

IRT is exclusive to the United States and its territories and delivers joint training opportunities to increase deployment readiness. Simultaneously, IRT provides key services, such as health care, construction, transportation, and cybersecurity, to U.S. communities. (Alaska National Guard photo by Alejandro Peña)
