Green Flag East 13-03

An F-16 Fighting Falcon from Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., prepares to land on the flightline at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., Jan. 17. Barksdale hosted the F-16s, aircrew and maintenance Airmen from Shaw for the exercise Green Flag East 13-03. The exercise is held in Leesville, La., and is typically used to prepare fighter squadrons for close air support missions down range. However, this particular iteration of GFE made history by using real-world threat surface to air missile systems along with ground and air support. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Amber Ashcraft)
