U.S. Army Paratroopers assigned to the 1st Battalion,
503rd Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne Brigade, conduct a raid on a village
after air assault from MV-22 Ospreys with the help of 2nd Marine Aircraft
Wing at Dandolo range in Pordenone, Italy. This training validates a platoon
to be the decisive element for the North and West Africa Response Force, a
U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa mission.
The 173rd Airborne
Brigade is the U.S. Army Contingency Response Force in Europe, capable of
projecting ready forces anywhere in the U.S. European, Africa or Central
Commands' areas of responsibility.
