Airmen deployed to the 732nd Regional Support Unit at Camp Habbaniyah, Iraq, have volunteered some 200 hours of their time—so far—to recover a cemetery dating to the 1940s when the camp was used by Britain’s Royal Air Force. Air Force journalist SrA. Josh Moshier reports that some 300 British and Commonwealth military members and civilians are buried at the cemetery. The RAF Habbaniyah Association recently honored one of the early volunteers, Capt. Jutta Cortes, by asking her to march in a military parade in London.
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
