About 80 airmen and C-130s from the Air Force Reserve’s 910th Airlift Wing returned Thursday to Youngstown ARS, Ohio, from a 120 day deployment to Southwest Asia. The airmen are the first half of the total deployed contingent from the 757th Airlift Squadron. The unit has repeatedly deployed to the region, and flew the 2014 airdrop mission that provided relief to Yazidis that fled ISIS to Mount Sinjar, Iraq.
The last remaining T-1 Jayhawk at JBSA-Randolph, Texas, took its final flight to the "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., on July 15. The 99th Flying Training Squadron will train pilots using T-6 and simulator until it gets T-7 Red Hawk in fiscal 2026.
