The 8th Security Forces Squadron no longer restricts its law enforcement operations to within the grounds of Kunsan AB, South Korea. By agreement with local authorities, 8th SFS airmen are working off base with members of the Korean National Police to patrol areas of Kunsan City frequented by US airmen. Base officials say they worked for several months to coordinate permanent implementation of the joint patrols.
U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortresses continued a busy bomber task force deployment to Europe by participating in multiple drills with NATO partners last week, including simulated weapons targeting exercises and a live munitions drop in Finland.
