Yves Marie Jacquot, 25th Air Engineer Regiment commander, after French pilots landed on fiber-reinforced polymer matting during airfield damage repair Exercise RAZORBACK, in Grostenquin, France, Apr 1, 2024. USAFE-AFAFRICA and French forces refined their engineering techniques together as they repaired a runway by filling craters with crushed stone backfill and installing FRP matting over the repair zone. It was first time the repair method was conducted in-theater in an active operation. (U.S. Department of Defense photo by Staff Sgt. Matthew Kakaris)
