    U.S. Army Soldiers assigned to 1st Infantry Division refuel a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter during an aerial gunnery qualification exercise in Lielvārde, Latvia, July 14, 2026. The qualification exercise was designed to grade participants on the effectiveness of their reaction time, communication, and ability during live-fire engagements. V Corps is the U.S. Army's only forward-deployed corps, serving as the senior tactical headquarters for Army forces in Eastern Europe to deter conflict and provide combat-ready forces alongside our NATO allies. V Corps is operationalizing and expanding the Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative with Allies, rapidly integrating emerging technologies into training and tactical plans. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt.

    A dark-colored UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter marked 'United States Army' is on the ground in a grassy field during dusk or dawn conditions. Two soldiers in military fatigues are standing near the aircraft, which has its rotors spinning. Ground support equipment is visible alongside the helicopter.
    The image is taken from inside a military helicopter cockpit, looking forward through the windshield at another helicopter flying in formation ahead. The interior cockpit instrumentation, including a digital map display, is visible in the foreground. The terrain below appears to be flat agricultural land viewed from altitude.
    Two military personnel are seated inside a helicopter in flight, with one individual reaching upward toward the window frame or overhead panel. The interior shows tactical equipment including a mounted weapon system visible through the open side door. Green forested terrain is visible below through the open door, suggesting the aircraft is airborne at low-to-medium altitude.
    A military helicopter, consistent with a UH-60 Black Hawk, is photographed in flight from the open door of another aircraft. The image is taken at altitude, revealing a broad agricultural landscape with fields, forests, and scattered settlements below. The photo appears to be taken during a formation or escort flight.
    A military aircrew member is photographed from behind while seated inside a helicopter in flight. The individual is wearing full tactical gear including a flight helmet with mounted equipment, multicam uniform, and tactical vest. The open door of the helicopter reveals a rural landscape with green fields and tree lines below.
    Two U.S. Army soldiers are photographed inside a military helicopter, likely a UH-60 Black Hawk. The soldier in the foreground, identified by name tape as 'WESSON' with a Master Sergeant rank insignia, is wearing a flight helmet and MultiCam (OCP) uniform with a U.S. flag patch. A second soldier is visible in the background near an open door, appearing to man a door gun position.
    Two U.S. Army soldiers in Operational Camouflage Pattern (OCP) uniforms are posing together on a flight line in front of a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. Name tapes visible on their uniforms read 'TREXLER' (left) and 'WARREN' (right), both bearing 'U.S. ARMY' tape. The photo appears to be taken during golden hour lighting at a military airfield.
