The International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan said in a release that a bomb dropped during a close air support strike “probably” killed three British soldiers on Aug. 23 in southern Afghanistan. A statement from the British Ministry of Defence attributed the accident to one of two USAF F-15s, saying that “one bomb was dropped and it is believed the explosion killed the three soldiers.” Stars and Stripes reports that the F-15s were from RAF Lakenheath, Britain, quoting ISAF spokesman Army Lt. Col. David Accetta. ISAF has initiated an investigation.
The Air Force wants to promote working out, healthy eating habits, and a holistic approach to well-being for both Airmen and Guardians as part of a new “Culture of Fitness” initiative announced Sept. 18.
