    Master Sgt. Chris Aguilar, 421st Fighter Squadron, is welcomed home by his family May 10 at Hill Air Force Base, Utah. Aguilar arrived home after completing a nearly 8-month deployment supporting Operation Freedom’s Sentinel in Afghanistan. As the 388th Fighter Wing transitions to the F-35 Lightning II aircraft, it’s likely this is the final combat operation for Hill’s F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft after nearly 40 years of providing air superiority for U.S. forces.
