Don't forget CAPTF. I was one of the last 179ers working with Afghan Fixed Wing Sqdn in Kabul. Highlight of my 23yrs. Guys after me got qualed in the An-32. Coming up is FMS sale of ex-Italian AF G222's (like exUSAF C27A). IPs needed for those, also in Kabul for 365 I'm sure. Also down the road will be T-6 and likely AT-6B.

The Afghans are very appreciative of what we do for them, except for some of the leadership who resist our democratic and merit-based leadership style.

Living in ISAF compound was much nicer than the KBR greasy food of Bagram or just about anywhere else. Europeans know how to wage war.
