1st Lt. Jordan Pierson, pilot from the 39th Airlift Squadron out of Dyess Air Force Base, pilots a C-130J Super Hercules during Joint Operational Access Exercise 13-03, Fort Bragg, , June 25, 2013. JOAX is a seven-day integrated effort between the 82nd Airborne Division and its Air Force partners. JOAX synchronizes the planning and execution of a large-scale forcible entry into a hostile area; securing sufficient freedom of movement while facing anti-access and area-denial capabilities of our enemy. This unified training brings together two Infantry Brigade Combat Teams, six Air Force Air Wings, support elements from fires and Aviation Brigades and other enablers along with the Division headquarters in order to prove the force multiplying value of joint operations.
