JET Airmen Support Operation Enduring Freedom
United States Air Forces Central
Video by Senior Airman Erin Mills
April 9, 2014 | 2:01
Operations in Afghanistan continue to reflect a culture change within the Air Force, placing greater emphasis on expeditionary and combat skills as Airmen work alongside Soldiers and other members of the joint team on the battlefield. The rise of joint expeditionary taskings has pushed Airmen to train harder for ground combat. Includes sound bites from Sgt. James Hanna, Project Manager, 82nd Sustainment Brigade; Tech. Sgt. Michael Bramble, NCOIC-Operations, 46th EOD; Staff Sgt. Alvaro Vega, Project Manager, 82nd Sustainment Brigade and Staff Sgt. Jessica Segella, Air Advisor, 4th Infantry Division. Also available in high definition. More
