U.S. Army Soldiers with 1st battalion, 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 11th Airborne Division, sling load a howitzer onto a CH-47 Chinook near Fort Greely during Exercise Red Flag, June 13, 2024. Red Flag is an annual Air Force exercise that gives the division an opportunity to work alongside joint partners, and continue to demonstrate the division’s ability to project forces throughout the Indo-Pacific and across the globe.
