Soldiers of 1st Battalion, 8th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division gave their vehicles the day off and took to the sky for an air assault training event with the help of Soldiers of the 244th Combat Aviation Brigade's Task Force Tiger, at the Gerber training range near Camp Buerhring, Kuwait, July 24 and 25, 2019.

Task Force Tiger is the contingent of 244th CAB Soldiers currently providing aviation operations support to U.S. Army Central's Task Force Spartan.

Providing aviation mission planning to units that wouldn't otherwise normally have access to the training is another way that Task Force Tiger and Soldiers of the 244th CAB help unit maximize lethality and readiness.
