U.S. Air Force Airmen gather parachutes after jumping following the Thunder Challenge 2023 event held at St. Mere Eglise Drop Zone Oct. 18, 2023, at Fort Liberty, N.C. Combat Weather Airmen must possess the battlefield skills necessary to protect themselves and their assigned units, because these units are often placed in forward operating locations. Thunder Challenge is an annual event designed to gather combat weather professionals in one location to evaluate core competencies, determine which participants are the most proficient and combat effective, and enable all participating units to share knowledge and expertise.
