The South Carolina Army National Guard’s 1-118th Combined Arms Battalion (CAB) participated in heavy airlift operations April 10-11, 2014, at Wright Army Airfield (WAAF), Hinesville, Ga., to demonstrate the joint, total force, capabilities of the S.C. Army Guard and U.S. Air Force Reserve’s 315th Airlift Wing. Soldiers and Airmen worked in unison over two days to load and secure four of the 1-118th CAB’s new M1A1SA Abrams Main Battle Tanks onto four U.S. Air Force C-17 transport planes for transportation to McEntire Joint National Guard Base in Eastover, S.C.
