With C-17 engines running and adrenalin pumping, the 48th Aerial Port Squadron (APS) members participated in an Engine Running Onload/Offload (ERO) exercise while at Joint Base Pearl-Harbor-Hickam June 13, 2021. The ERO simulated deployed conditions in which aircraft may not have the time to shut down before downloading or uploading cargo, and gave our 2T2s key readiness experience that would be integral in Pacific theater operations. A sense of urgency and attention to detail were evident during the training procedures; safety briefings were highlighted prior to the ERO to ensure members could identify and prevent any mishaps. Practicing in this type of scenario enhances capabilities and helps identify best practices to improve wartime readiness.
