Slovenes Assist with Croatian ISAF Deployment, October 30-31

A three-man Slovene load planning team recently worked with two U.S. Marine load planners to assist with a Croatian Armed Forces International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) deployment to Afghanistan.  This was the first time Slovenes have employed their U.S.-acquired cargo loading skills outside of Slovenia and it’s a great example of one coalition partner keeping their skills sharp while providing assistance to another partner.

In the early hours of the morning, a Slovene cargo loader and two U.S. Marines prepare a pallet of Croatian cargo for loading onto the U.S. C-17.

U.S. C-17 loadmasters and a Slovene cargo loader push a Croatian cargo pallet into place before securing it for transport to Afghanistan.
