152AW members about to depart for MAFFS training at Channel Islands
Members of the 152nd Airlift Wing, Nevada Air National Guard, pose for a photo on the flight line at the Nevada Air National Guard Base in Reno before their flight to Channel Islands Air National Guard Station, Calif., this week for the unit’s first Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System certification and training. Maj. Ricardo Bravo, seventh from the left, saw firsthand last summer how MAFFS can stop a fire line when aircrews dropped retardant near his northern California farm. Photo by Tech. Sgt.
