About 100 airmen from Moody AFB, Ga., deployed last week to protect deployed USAF assets in the fight against ISIS. The airmen from the 824th Base Defense Squadron deployed April 11 to an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia to “provide fully integrated, highly capable, and responsive forces while safeguarding expeditionary Air Force assets,” according to a Moody release. The squadron is part of the 93rd Air Ground Operations Wing.
Air Force Chief of Staff nominee Gen. Kenneth S. Wilsbach said he'll give special attention to coordinating with the Navy on buys of new weapons.
