A new Air Force squadron focused on training the Iraqi Air Force is up and ready. The 370th Air Expeditionary Advisory Group on Jan. 10 activated the 870th Air Expeditionary Advisory Squadron, according to an Air Forces Central release. The new squadron, which will advise Iraqi Security Forces Aviation on logistics at all aerial ports in Iraq, will be commanded by Maj. Ross “Alex” Mol.
