Italian army 1st Capt. Paracadutisti “Folgore” Alberto Spinelli (center) gives the command to “hook up” to soldiers from the 416th Civil Affairs Battalion during an airborne operation. Spinelli, giving verbal commands in Italian, was still understood by the American soldiers because of standardized hand-and-arm signals for airborne operations. Airborne operations like this allow for coalition partner interoperability on and off the battlefield. (Courtesy photo)
