BILOXI, Miss. — Reservists with the 815th air crew from the 403rd Wing at Keesler Air Force Base have returned from a four-month deployment in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Anxious family members waited on the flight line Monday as airmen arrived. The 815th left in September and logged 2,500 hours of flying airlift missions.
Col. Keith Bishop with the 403rd Wing told WLOX television that the wing set records for hauling and air drops of equipment, cargo and personnel. The airmen also delivered care packages to troops over the holidays. The packages were put together at Keesler.
