Airmen deployed to Kenya for Operation Unity Knight airdropped their last load late last week, delivering tents, tarps, and mosquito netting—and candy for the children, according to a Dec. 18 report by Air Force photojournalist TSgt. Steve Staedler. The campaign, which began on Dec. 9, delivered more than 211,000 pounds of supplies into the Dadaab region that was heavily damaged by floods. The C-130 aircrew from Dyess AFB, Tex., decided to pay for candy to deliver to the children, who “are living there in a situation that’s beyond their control,” said pilot 1st Lt. Dan Spengler.
The B-52 bombers that flew off the coast of Venezuela on Oct. 15 were accompanied by Marine Corps F-35s as part of a so-called “Bomber Attack Demonstration,” according to new images and information from the Pentagon.
