Eight medics from five US Air Forces in Europe bases are working in Liberia to train some of the country’s scarce medical personnel, as part of an initiative by President Ellen Sirleaf-Johnson to re-energize security forces within the fledgling democracy.
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.
