ir Force Special Operations Command plans to install a special tactics squadron at its new western outpost, Cannon AFB, N.M., in addition to special ops flying units and aircraft. The Portales News Tribune reports that the special tactics unit will comprise about 100 personnel, including combat controllers and pararescue jumpers.
Unit commanders are being told to separate service members who can’t shave their cheeks and chin for medical reasons for more than a year, according to new guidance from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
