Fifty-eight airmen of the 820th RED HORSE civil engineering unit at Nellis AFB, Nev., have deployed to Nicaragua as part of US Southern Command’s New Horizons exercise, during which they will work with other US military members to construct a school and medical clinic in the Carazo District. The 820th is the lead unit for some 250 US active and reserve service members.
The Air Force has finished resurrecting a B-1B Lancer, completing a yearslong process to transform a bomber that had been stored for parts in the Arizona desert into the new flagship of the 7th Bomb Wing at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas.
