The military base in Zaragoza is currently being used for Combined Air Terminal Operations (CATO). This is a non-permanent facility, designed for planning, controlling and executing air operations for both personnel and cargo during Trident Juncture 2015. This CATO stands out as it is made up of personnel from various countries, with a Spanish element consisting of a dozen military staff from the EADA aerial support squadron. Since the exercise started, CATO has handled over 340 tons of material and provided services for 49 aircraft. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) First Sergeant of CATO squadron Daniel Rubio. Right now we’re providing support for exercise Trident Juncture via a CATO, which is the support terminal for unloading and loading cargo planes. Once the cargo plane lands, teams for personnel, cargo and lot control check with the crew, take receipt of paperwork, unload the equipment or cargo and transfer the personnel to the terminals. After that the cargo is then forwarded to the countries taking part. Also available in high definition.
