The Air Force Rescue Coordination Center has moved from Langley AFB, Va., to Tyndall AFB, Fla., beginning operations March 1 at its new home, America’s Air Operations Center. The Air Force realigned the AFRCC last spring under 1st Air Force, which has its headquarters at Tyndall and which is the Air Force component for NORAD and US Northern Command. The AAOC is due to become fully operational in June.
U.S. Air Force F-15C Eagles have roared out of Barnes Air National Guard Base, Mass., for the last time. The 104th Fighter Wing’s last three F-15Cs departed the base Oct. 23 for the “Boneyard” at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., ending the aircraft's era on the frontlines of homeland defense.
