Money for MWR and WG/CC’s being willing to accept risk... even a little bit, is in short supply these days. We have one, but it’s cheaper to rent on the economy.
The F-22 was initially supposed to go to Holloman and NM politics got AFSOC into Cannon. With the airspace available out here I wouldn’t be surprised if something ends up in the land of entrapment.
Looks like news is reporting pilot and wso ejected, but didn’t make it.
Damn.

The MC-J comes with an awesome mission set, but a really high ops tempo. You're gone a lot, but you get to work with a lot of skilled folks across the SOF community.
