An eight-man team of soldiers visited Ramstein to repair and mobilize eight Apache attack helicopters from illeshei, Germany. The ten-day assignment began on March 18 and was completed March 28. The mission consisted of inspections and equipment checks before being loaded up and shipped back to a deployed location in a C-17 Globe Master III. The mission allowed them to work alongside Air Force members in a joint effort to prepare the Apaches for operations down-range. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman Dymekre Allen)
