An Airman assigned to the 407th Air Expeditionary Group in Southwest Asia in support of Operation Inherent Resolve died on April 15 when the building he was working in was damaged from extreme winds. A1C Nathaniel McDavitt, 22, of Glen Burnie, Md., was deployed from the 52nd Equipment Maintenance Squadron at Spangdahlem AB, Germany, according to a Pentagon release.
Fresh off its most ambitious test yet of an autonomous cargo plane, the Air Force is preparing to go even bigger by deploying and operating another such aircraft for an entire year.
