Eyes on target

Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. --Senior Airman Jacob Blumbrich and Staff Sgt. Jarrod Phelan, both Tactical Air Control Party Airmen, directly communicate with an A-10 Thunderbolt II after getting a visual of a simulated threat at Cannon Range Oct. 13 during a 30 day career upgrade training field exercise. The Airmen are in the final days of their training and must prove they are capable of coordinating close air requests, and controls close-air-support giving pilots in the air a better visual of the target which provides life saving mission support. Sergeant Phelan is a tactical air control party Airman assigned to the 14th Air Support Operations Squadron, Pope Air Force Base, N.C. and Airman Blumbrich TACP assigned to the 15th ASOS, Fort Benning, GA.
