Journalists from the Tribune Star report on the work being done by Indiana Air and Army National Guardsmen who have traveled to southern California under the Administration’s Operation Jump Start to aid the Border Patrol. The Guardsmen have been working to stabilize a road and renovate a naval base. Army Lt. Gen. Steven Blum has deemed Jump Start a big success.
The Air Force has finished modifying and testing the new VC-25B Bridge aircraft that will serve as a temporary Air Force One, the service announced May 1. All that’s left now is to finish painting the jet before it starts flying this summer.
