FORT BLISS, Texas - It was a bright, warm day when I walked onto Biggs Army Airfield, surrounded by desert mountains.
But it was also loud.
I saw Chinook, Blackhawk, and Apache helicopters sprawled across the airfield, many of which were on the ground and being worked on, while a few periodically hovered above.
I then met Chief Warrant Officer Zachary Eichhorn, and he walked me over to the AH-64 Delta Longbow attack chopper pictured above.

Although I only had about 30 minutes to see everything, Eichhorn gave me a tour of all the weapons systems and even the cockpit.
Here's what I saw:
