The Vermont Air National Guard’s 158th Fighter Wing will be spending much of the fall in New Hampshire, sharing facilities with ANG’s 157th Air Refueling Wing at Pease Air National Guard Station. The Air Guard is having runway repairs done at the Burlington (Vt.) Airport. The Associated Press news service reports that the Green Mountain boys will fly training missions out of Pease.
Airmen and Guardians in the Active and Reserve component, as well as civilian employees, in “mission critical and high-risk populations” are now required to receive influenza vaccinations annually to “preserve force readiness,” according to a recent Department of the Air Force memo.
