5 As the verdict in the former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin trial was announced, U.S. Air Force Airmen from the 133rd Airlift Wing were staged and ready to secure the Minneapolis Convention Center.
The Airmen were just 50 pieces to a 3,000-piece puzzle, activated to support Operation Safety Net, a unified effort between multiple Minnesota law enforcement organizations and the Minnesota National Guard. Guardsmen were pre-staged throughout Minneapolis and St. Paul to protect lives, property, and the right to peacefully protest.
“The Army is better suited to assist law enforcement due to their training and equipment capabilities,” said U.S. Air Force Maj. Casey Brown, Officer-In-Charge of team Bravo, 133rd Airlift Wing. “Conducting this security mission to ensure their forces were focused on supporting law enforcement was a perfect assignment for this team.”
