U.S. Air Force Capt. Nate Ligon, 20th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron weapons system officer, talks with an Australian aviation firefighter about the B-52H Stratofortress at Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Base Darwin, Australia, April 6, 2018. RAAF Darwin hosted two B-52H Stratofortress bombers during a week-long Enhanced Air Cooperation exercise, designed to improve interoperability between U.S. Air Force aircrews and Australian joint tactical air controllers. The bombers are deployed from Barksdale Air Force Base, La., and currently assigned to Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, in support of Pacific Command’s continuous bomber presence. Local firefighters visited the aircraft to familiarize with the safety and rescue feature of the airframe. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Alexander W. Riedel)
