The Indiana Army National Guard took part in the exercise with soldiers from D Company LRS, 151st Infantry Regiment, 38th Infantry Division, conducting airdrops from an Ohio Air National Guard C-130H onto Sliač Air Base, Slovakia. Airmen of the 163rd Expeditionary Fighter Squadron have been training with the Slovak Air Force to demonstrate close air support capabilities, and conduct familiarization classroom events to enhance integration our two air forces. This training also further builds the robust State Partnership Indiana and Slovakia have held for over 20 years. Operation Atlantic Resolve is a resounding example of our unfailing dedication to our NATO allies, demonstrating our commitment to European security and stability.
