Two Afghan Air Force students in training at Moody AFB, Ga., were reported missing after they failed to report for duty on Monday, according to a base release. The two students were screened prior to their arrival in the US and have trained alongside Americans for all of 2015. “There is a well-coordinated process among federal agencies to locate the individuals as quickly as possible,” the base said in a release. Valdosta Police Department Chief Brian Childress told the Associated Press there is no evidence the Afghans are a threat. The 81st Fighter Squadron at Moody is in charge of training Afghan pilots on A-29 Super Tucano close air support aircraft.
Air Combat Command will hold its distinguished William Tell Air-to-Air Weapons competition in March after it was postponed last year.
