Black Falcons Conduct Heavy Drop Exercise

Pfc. Jorge Portell of B Battery, 2nd Battalion, 319th Airborne Field Artillery Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, tosses a spent howitzer round after firing during a heavy drop mission Oct. 14. Paratroopers from B Battery jumped onto Holland Drop Zone after the howitzer and a Humvee were dropped. They were then timed on how quickly they could pack their parachutes, get the equipment off the heavy drop and put together and respond to fire. Photo by Pfc. Kissta Feldner
