Riggers ensure airdrops run smoothly

Elizabeth Watson, a parachute rigger with the 824th Quartermaster Company Detachment 2, inspects the main canopy of a joint precision airdrop system at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, May 31, 2017. The JPADS is designed for aircraft to drop cargo from a safe altitude, allowing them to be out of range of many anti-aircraft weapons systems. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Amy M. Lovgren)
