Behind the Wing Podcast 2018-4
315th Airlift Wing
Video by Maj. Wayne Capps, Michael Dukes, Tech. Sgt. Bobby Pilch
Feb. 15, 2018 | 34:25
In our February 2018 episode of the 315th Airlift Wing's Behind the Wing podcast we talk to Staff Sgt. Patrick Hooton of our 300th Airlift Squadron Squadron here in Charleston, S.C. to learn a unique humanitarian mission our Citizen Airmen accomplished to Port-au-Prince, Haiti earlier this month.

In our news feature segment, we chat about the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea where we have two of our Reservists supporting news media operations over there.

We also sit down with Staff Sgt. Corban Lundborg to discuss his exciting job in our 4th Combat Camera Squadron here. He also explains how his civilian career is a perfect match for his military assignment.

This and more on our latest episode of Behind the Wing - the official podcast of the 315th Airlift Wing.
