JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO, Texas – A group of Air Force Reserve Citizen Airmen, assigned to the 910th Airlift Wing based at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, stand with Mr. Devin Wright, Center Operations Supervisor of USO San Antonio (center), as he presents a pallet of snacks to the group at the Operations hangar at the Kelly Field Annex here, Sept. 18, 2017. The USO San Antonio presented the snacks along with a birthday cake to the group to celebrate the U.S. Air Force’s 70th birthday. This group represents more than 90 Reserve Citizen Airmen supporting the 910th’s mosquito control aerial spray operations over areas of eastern Texas devastated by Hurricane Harvey. Due to large amounts of standing, polluted water, the numbers of pest insects are increasing significantly. This situation is impacting first responders and recovery workers as clean-up and repair efforts continue. Since Sept. 9, 2017, the 910th has treated more than two million affected acres for mosquito control purposes at the request of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS).
