While in South Korea on his Pacific tour, Air Force Secretary Wynne told airmen that an assignment to South Korea “really illustrates why in fact [an airman] joined the military in the first place because if you want to stand on freedom’s doorstep, here it is.” He added that the lifestyle is terrific. Wynne visited both Osan Air Base and Kunsan Air Base.
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
