NIAGARA FALLS AIR RESERVE STATION, N.Y. – Airmen who deployed from the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station earlier this year will be returning here, May 19, 2014.
More than 100 Airmen from the Operations and Maintenance units deployed to Southwest Asia in support of contingency operations.
While deployed, their duties included maintaining aircraft, medical evacuations, as well as delivering combat cargo such as food, water, ammunition and medical supplies critically necessary to service members fighting in remote areas in that part of the world.
"We are extremely proud of our reservists," said 914th Airlift Wing Commander Col. Steven Parker. "They are always willing to employ Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station assets support of military objectives around the world."
Media are invited to cover this event on the installation and should report at 8:45 a.m. to the Main Gate on Lockport Road for escort.
