Soldiers from the 2nd Mobile Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) create a defensive perimeter around a CH-47 Chinook that just air assaulted them into the Joint Regional Training Center (JRTC) at Ft. Johnson, LA as part of a large scale, long range air assault (L2A2) that the 101st launched from Ft. Campbell, KY to JRTC on the night of August 15, 2024. L2A2 means delivering one brigade combat team over 500 nautical miles in one period of darkness, arriving as a cohesive element where the enemy least expects it, capable of fighting behind enemy lines for 14 or more days.
