    A reload crew of Patriot Launching Station Enhanced Operator and Maintainers with Delta Battery, 1st Battalion, 1st Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 38th ADA Brigade, performs reload operations on their air defense system on Oct. 29, 2024, during the battery's deployment in support of Keen Sword 2025. Rapidly reloading cannisters, as well as off-loading expended cannisters, is important to keep the Patriot Launching System prepared to defend against threats; these reload crew evaluation is part of the Patriot's Table VIII gunnery evaluation tasks that each crew must demonstrate their mastery of annually.
