USAF has been training the new Iraqi Air Force, which officials say has made “significant progress” in only a few months. “We are starting over, “ the head of the Iraqi Air Force, Maj. Gen. Kamal Barzanjy, told USAF journalist SSgt. Melissa Koskovich. He added, “America has given us a lot of help, and we have already accomplished many things, but we need to keep growing.”
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, one of two National Guard members shot in a Washington, D.C., attack, will soon be awarded the Purple Heart.
