Operation Allies Refuge
60th Air Mobility Wing

Sept. 8, 2021 | 0:40
The United States ended 20 years of war in Afghanistan, the longest war in American history and Operation Allies Refuge airlifted more than 120 thousand people out of Afghanistan — one of the biggest airlifts in history. Travis Air Force Base deployed Airmen, aircraft and supplies to support the mission. The U.S. Air Force, in support of the Department of Defense, moved forces into theater to facilitate the safe departure and relocation of U.S. citizens, Special Immigration Visa recipients, and vulnerable Afghan populations from Afghanistan.
