Air Force Reserve Command’s 440th Airlift Wing, which relocated from Wisconsin to Pope AFB, N.C., has picked up where it left off, flying Integrated Continental US Medical Operations Plan missions. The wing, which is the only AFRC unit flying ICOMP missions, had to stop during its transition to Pope, reports Lt. Col. Ann Knabe. Milwaukee. These missions originally flew injured servicemembers from medical facilities in the US to their homes, but they now include other stateside missions that call for C-130 airlifters.
Members of the House Armed Services Committee say the AIM-260 Joint Advanced Tactical Missile program has been set back three months due to the ongoing government shutdown. The comment is noteworthy because the JATM's status has been kept tightly under wraps.
