Blue for Green—Training With the Army:
Known as Iraqi Assistance Group Foxtrot, some 59 airmen recently received training with the Army at Ft. Hood, Tex., to prepare themselves to help the Iraqi Army develop its organizational and base infrastructure—the type of work traditionally handled by the Army. Before going to Iraq, the airmen must complete 299 individual combat tasks, and, while en route, they get additional weapons and cultural training.
Airman 1st Class Marcus White-Allen concocted a story to cover up that he fired his M18 9mm pistol into Airman Braden Lovan’s chest killing him on July 20, two Airmen from F.E. Warren Air Force Base, WY testified during separate courts martial proceedings on Oct. 30-31.
