A Czech Republic forward air controller looks over a map before starting a day of close air support controls during the annual Coronet Cactus exercise April 22, 2015, at a range near Gila Bend, Arizona. The two-week exercise allowed the Czech FACs to receive training during an exchange prior to their deployment to Southeast Asia. Texas and the Czech Republic are partnered through the Department of State's State Partnership Program. The two have been partnered since 1993. (Air National Guard photo by 1st Lt. Alicia M.
