(1st Lt. Cedric Adams is with the 414th Combat Training Squadron at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. and participated in Red Flag-Alaska at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska.)
Red Flag-Alaska 10-1 was another great experience for my Air Force career. This was my second chance to come up to Eielson AFB to support the exercise in the position of maintenance officer. The exercise here
has a lot of similarities to the exercise in Las Vegas as well as many differences.
During previous exercises, I was able to work with Pacific Air Forces units instead of Air Combat Command units as well as our allies, the French and Japanese. It is always amazing to see how the units; operators, maintenance, and support both from the host base and all the visitors can come together and accomplish the training to keep our fighting forces at the top of their craft. The highlights of this trip were shooting new weaponry with the Army Rangers and participating in a friendly soccer game between the Japan Air Self-Defense Force and Eielson AFB soccer teams. Hopefully, I will be able to return in the near future.
