12 As part of an effort to maximize Mobility Air Forces and Combat Air Forces integration as well as enhance agile combat employment capabilities in the Indo-Pacific theater, a contingent of Airmen from the 19th Airlift Wing participated in an off-station training exercise at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, March 29 – April 7.
Led by the 41st Airlift Squadron, alongside Airmen from the 19th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron and 19th Operations Support Squadron, Airmen completed 24 sorties, 88 flying hours, and more than 700 training events during the OST.
This training afforded C-130J Super Hercules’ aircrews the opportunity to further enhance their capabilities and receive hands-on experience with equipment, procedures, and personnel that they do not typically see while at home-station or downrange during deployments.
