Air Force civil engineers that form the highly effective mobile RED HORSE units operating throughout Southwest Asia would not be able to complete their tasks without their logistical hub, reports SrA. Erik Hofmeyer in the Desert Eagle. The 1st Expeditionary RED HORSE Group supplies all the forward teams, providing management and maintenance of more that 75 different types of vehicles used for transportation and heavy construction and collect and ship all equipment and supplies to teams in the field currently working 151 projects.
Airmen and Guardians in the Active and Reserve component, as well as civilian employees, in “mission critical and high-risk populations” are now required to receive influenza vaccinations annually to “preserve force readiness,” according to a recent Department of the Air Force memo.
