    Sgt. 1st Class Juan Trevino, B Company, 3rd Battalion (Airborne), 509th Infantry Regiment, radios wind speed and direction as paratroopers from the 4th Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, conduct airborne operations on Malamute Drop Zone, June 4, 2013. With C-17 Globemaster aircraft delivering more than 300 soldiers, a M119A2 105 mm howitzer, and a M252 81 mm mortar, Operation Spartan Reach, a three-day mass exercise simulating rapid deployment into a hostile area, is the largest of its kind since the unit's activation in 2005.
