USAF C-130H #73-1582 is parked at Young Air Assault Strip on November 28, 2017, on South Post at Fort McCoy. The C-130, which arrived at the airstrip in October 2015, was transferred from Little Rock AFB, to Fort McCoy. The aircraft eventually is used to train service members to palletize cargo. The aircraft is located permanently at the airstrip. A full enclosure was built to provide for a more-defined training area. [US Army photo by Scott T. Sturkol]
