Fifteen Air and Army National Guard members of Kentucky’s 41st Civil Support Team (Weapons of Mass Destruction) are conducting environmental tests in Brooks, Ky., following a train derailment there Jan. 16 in which the cargo of flammable liquid spilled out on the tracks and caught fire. To help ensure public safety, Guardsmen are conducting air quality tests with local authorities, but there was no initial determination as to the type of liquid.
The Air Force wants to promote working out, healthy eating habits, and a holistic approach to well-being for both Airmen and Guardians as part of a new “Culture of Fitness” initiative announced Sept. 18.
