Busy Busy Joint Task Force

It's been a busy few weeks as the Squadron's have been accomplishing mission after mission.  Here's a glimpse of Operation Guardian, a mission built around Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) which incorporated multiple aircraft platforms and mission roles.  The A-10's, F-16's, F/A-18's, MI-24's, and UH-1's all working together providing SEAD, DEAD, ESCORT, STRIKE, CAP, and CSAR made for a very complex but satisfying mission.  All while dealing with low ceilings and rain to boot.
