An Italian mason worker levels a block, as work continues on the new dorms at Aviano AB, Italy. The Aviano 2000 Program (AV2K) is one of the most aggressive construction programs ever undertaken at a single military installation. Involving over 274 NATO/USAF projects estimated at a cost of $535 million, the magnitude of this program cannot be overstated. The AV2K program is one of the largest ever undertaken by the USAF and will transform the entire base structure. When completed, Aviano Air Base will become a modern 21st century operational air base capable of sustaining air combat and combat support in the Southern European Theater
