To make things clear, C-17’s are military transport planes commonly in use by the US Military. Why these two appear to be flying in conjunction with one another alongside a C-5M Galaxy (which, if I am correct, is also a transport plane) is beyond me.

C17 is second largest transport aircraft in our fleet, behind the C5 (hubs is a Navy vet and we've lived near military bases our whole lives)
Could squash quite a few commies in a c17?
Or one Stacy Abrams... kek
Just to put it in perspective, how many Stacy Abrams can that massive beast handle? 3? 5?
LOL!
Well maybe just a leg...
Thanks for the info! I’m personally one of the uninformed when it comes to these aircraft.
Nothing appears out of the ordinary.
Correct. It's a BIG fucker. Not as big as a C-5, but close...
Been in both... 17 is big... 5 is YUGE.
Moving a group of soldiers from one location to another, commonly called a deployment.
A platoon in the army is about 42 people. A company is 2-5 platoons.
I'd expect a company and some equipment in that grouping of aircraft, or maybe 2-3 companies if its just personnel.
