Capt. Maureen Hartney, 81st Fighter Squadron executive officer, uses a signal flare to reveal her location to A-10 Thunderbolt II pilots July 19 during a combat search and rescue training mission here at Dacian Thunder. Hartney was the survivor in this scenario where A-10 pilots worked with Romanian air force IAR 330 helicopter pilots to locate and safely rescue her. Dacian Thunder is a month-long partnership building exercise in which the U.S. Air Force, Romanian air force, U.S. Marine Corps and the Royal Air Force exchange techniques, tactics and procedures to strengthen coalition and joint capabilities.
