Colorado AF Reservists support new military cargo tracking system
Senior Airman Kacy Foshee (foreground), 39th Aerial Port Squadron air transportation apprentice, works with members of his squadron to collect parachute cord after a simulated container delivery system drop Sept. 24 at Fort Carson, Colo. The drop, conducted by a C-130 Hercules crew assigned to the Air Force Reserve's 302nd Airlift Wing, supported the U.S. Air Force Academy's Airdrop Enhanced Logistics Visibility System prototype system that demonstrated the ability of commanders in the field and at the headquarters level to simultaneously identify the location and contents of a CDS within minutes of the cargo leaving the aircraft. The AELVIS project aims to provide war fighters in locations like Iraq and Afghanistan with exact details on crucial cargo drops for resupply. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt. Jody L. Ritchie)
