A UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter from the 227th Assault Helicopter Battalion conducts sling load operations with soldiers from the 66th Combat Engineer Company - Armored (CEC-A), 40th Engineer Battalion, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, assigned to Joint Task Force-Southern Border, near El Centro, Calif., March 3, 2026. The sling load operations were required to move materials from the mountainous areas along the southern border after 11,700 miles of concertina wire were built by the 66th CEC-A. U.S. Northern Command is working side-by-side with the Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection within narrowly defined authorities to provide unique military capabilities to protect the territorial integrity of the U.S. southern border.
