USAF firemen from Moody AFB, Ga., have been helping area firefighters since April 17 to stamp out forest fires raging across southeastern Georgia, reports A1C Eric Schloeffel. The Moody firefighters have been supplying water to local firefighting companies via a tanker than can hold 5,000 gallons of water. Working in 12-hour shifts, the Moody personnel drive the tanker to wherever a fire truck needed water, since the rural area of the fire contains few hydrants.
The successful second flight of Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket on Nov. 13 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Fla., also included a first for the company—the launcher’s booster stuck its landing on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean.
