The Ohio Air National Guard will establish a new 200-member RED HORSE engineering unit at Mansfield, the home of the 179th Airlift Wing, reports the Telegraph Forum. The 179th AW survived the BRAC 2005 axe—barely—losing its C-130s but later got picked as one of the new Joint Cargo Aircraft units. The addition of the rapid-deployable engineer unit will bring about $40 million in new construction to the Mansfield Air Guard facility.
