67th SOS Night Owls: nocturnal by nature

U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Raymond Beasley, 67th Special Operations Squadron MC-130J Commando II loadmaster from Shalimar, Fla., gives a thumbs-up to begin a heavy equipment drop during training Jan. 22, 2015, over RAF Sculthorpe, England. Necessary when entering potentially hazardous areas, Air Commandos must hit their target drop zone to resupply special operations forces via airdrop. These require careful planning to ensure even weight distribution and strategic placement of cargo for the quickest, most accurate deployment of supplies.
