Romanian air force special forces members use their nation's combat search and rescue procedures to identify U.S. Air Force Capt. Maureen Hartney, 81st Fighter Squadron executive officer, as a survivor July 19 during a training mission a part of the Dacian Thunder exercise here. The 81st FS A-10 Thunderlbolt II pilots worked with Romanian air force IAR helicopter pilots to locate and safely rescue Hartney in this mission. 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. Faces have been blurred to protect the identity of special forces members.
