The Air Force Reserve Command’s C-130Js of the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron have returned to their home station at Keesler AFB, Miss., which was devastated by Hurricane Katrina. The Hurricane Hunters have had a busy season. They are joined back in Mississippi by the Flying Jennies of the 815th Airlift Squadron.
Officials at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., said the range is “fully mission capable” to support launches following a major May 28 mishap involving Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket.
