Central Command Air Forces has a special Web site displaying individual and unit awards that Air Force Reserve Command officials say Reservists should visit to see whether they are eligible for awards from their duty in the Global War on Terror. Since 9/11, they note, the Air Force has mobilized about 30,000 Reservists and thousands more have volunteered.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
