Crew chiefs with the 451st Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron run through final pre-flights checks on an F-16 with the 157th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron, flown by Maj. Stephen “Boards” Kaminski, prior to take off at Kandahar Airfield for a daytime mission over Afghanistan July 1, 2012. Personnel are deployed from McEntire Joint National Guard Base, S.C., in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Swamp Fox F-16s, pilots, and support personnel began their air expeditionary force deployment in early April to take over flying missions for the air tasking order and provide close air support for troops on the ground in Afghanistan.
