'Today's Air Force' features deployment topics

  • Published
This edition of "Today's Air Force" highlights an Initial Readiness Response Exercise. This exercise allows base personnel to evaluate deployment processes that will help Airmen deploy smoothly.

Also featured are humanitarian missions, such as Operation Medflag, part of the Air Force's Medical Civic Assistance Program where medical Airmen are deployed to remote villages to provide medical assistance as part of their training.

Safety is a primary focus for the Air Force. See how Airmen in Aviano Air Base, Italy, prepare themselves to survive chemical and biological threats.
