Predictions of a potentially bad recruiting year are being proved wrong as all the services meet or exceed their goals once again, according to the latest statistics from the Pentagon. The active Air Force and Air Force Reserve are even for the month of March, while the Air National Guard for a second month in a row attracted more than its goal for enlisted recruits, bringing in an additional 162.
The Air Force has begun flying its CV-22 Ospreys again. But that is just the start of a multi-step process to return the fleet to normal operations following a deadly crash last year, the service says.
