According to the Korean newspaper Hankyoreh, Washington and Seoul are talking about creating something called the “Korean Peninsular Air Force Post Command,” which would take command of air forces on the peninsula, eclipsing 7th Air Force at Osan AB, South Korea. That would appear at odds with a statement last week by Gen. Paul Hester, commander of Pacific Air Forces, who said that control of USAF assets in Korea would remain with 7th Air Force.
The Air Force on Jan. 6 released nearly a dozen photos of F-22 and F-35 fighters returning to Puerto Rico after supporting the raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro—the first official images of forces who participated in Operation Absolute Resolve.
