    U.S. Soldiers assigned to the 1st Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, utilize a CH-47, Chinook helicopter to pick up a Ground Based Operational Surveillance System (Expeditionary) (GBOSS(E)) for transportation to a remote site along the border at Wellton Customs and Border Patrol Station, Ariz., June 9, 2025. Sling load capabilities allow for equipment up to 25,000lbs to be transported by helicopter to remote areas of the border that would be difficult or impossible to travel to otherwise. Under the direction of U.S. Northern Command, Joint Task Force–Southern Border aligns efforts to seal the southern border and repel illegal activity and is responsible for full-scale, agile, and all-domain operations, which will allow for more effective and efficient DoD operations.
