Cpl. Teome Matamua and Sgt. Phillip McIllvaney, Australian Army 176th Air Dispatch Squadron loadmasters, deliver the first low-cost, low-altitude bundle of Operation Christmas Drop 2015 to the island of MogMog, Dec. 8, 2015. Australian and Japanese C-130 aircrews for the first time joined U.S. Airmen during the 64th year of Operation Christmas Drop – a humanitarian aid/disaster relief training event where C-130 aircrews perform LCLA airdrops on unsurveyed drop zones while providing critical supplies to 56 islands throughout the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas, Federated States of Micronesia and Republic of Palau. It highlights the U.S. and allied airpower capabilities to orient and respond to activities in peacetime and crisis. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Katrina Brisbin)
