The Vermont Air National Guard celebrates the New Year with us as we look back on an incredible action packed 2025. From local training missions to global operations, the 158th Fighter Wing made every moment count.
Three members of the Air Force Reserve’s 624th Regional Support Group, 48th Aerial Port Squadron, recently returned from a six-month deployment—from October 2024 to April 2025–two to Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar and one to Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait. Their shared stories bring into focus a fuller picture of deployment; one marked by personal growth, quiet strength and the constant balance between duty, leadership and family.
