Air Force Reserve Command deactivated its 92nd Aerial Port Squadron in Forty Fort, Pa., last weekend. The Citizens Voice reports that the unit had served there for 51 years before falling prey to BRAC 2005 and the Air Force’s overall personnel drawdown. Some of the unit’s 130 airmen retired along with the 92nd APS.
The Pentagon’s new counter-drone task force will play a direct role in arming Airmen with new weapons to defend Air Force agile combat employment, or ACE, air bases in austere locations against enemy drone attacks, the director of Joint Interagency Task Force 401 said Oct. 14.
