Twenty airmen from Los Angeles AFB, Calif., recently got to play a background role on the popular Fox TV show “24,” performing as honor guard members for a May 22 episode. The show’s crew filmed a scene on the flightline at NAS Pt. Mugu, Calif., where the Space and Missile Systems Center and 61st Air Base Group airmen mingled with other military members watching the filming.
The first A-10 "Warthog" departed Warfield Air National Guard Base, Md., last week, the first step in a process that could leave Maryland Air Guard the only one among the 50 states without a flying mission. Negotiations to acquire a follow-on flying mission have stalled.
