U.S. Army Soldiers from the 3-159th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion assembles an OE-254 antenna while
assisting 82d Expeditionary Air Support Operations Squadron joint terminal attack controllers with machine gun
and rocket attacks from a U.S. Navy MH-60S Seahawk during a training exercise, July 8, 2014. The 25-foot
antenna was used to enhance communication between pilots and JTACs.
U.S. Air Force JTACs led training for eight U.S. Army soldiers in preparation for future missions.
The weekly training is designed to teach the infantry soldiers how to properly communicate with aircraft to
coordinate airstrikes in the absence of a JTAC.
