    Airmen from the 86th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron and 86th Maintenance Squadron work on a C-130J Super Hercules assigned to the 37th Airlift Squadron, Ramstein Air Base, Germany, Aug. 17, 2015, at Otopeni Air Base, Romania. The aircraft’s nose landing gear steering control swivel valve broke. Maintenance personnel were able to replace the part and get the aircraft back into action for Carpathian Summer, an off-station training exercise between the U.S. and Romanian air forces. Approximately 80 personnel traveled to Otopeni Air Base to participate in the bilateral training exercise. The U.S. Air Force transferred authority to NATO of the three C-130Js participating in the exercise. This transfer of authority is a standard procedure that will serve to enhance interoperability and readiness to conduct combined air operations with Romania and NATO. The TOA will end at the conclusion of the exercise. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Timothy Moore)
