description

Summary

The 176th Wing, Alaska Air National Guard, received its first new HC-130J “Combat King II” aircraft at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, June 3, 2017. The aircraft is the first of four new aircraft that will replace the HC-130N models previously flown by the 211th Rescue Squadron, the last of which was transferred to Patrick Air Force Base, Florida, in January, 2017. Modifications to the HC-130J include improved navigation, threat detection and countermeasures systems, among a variety of additional upgrades. Aircrew, including the wing commander, Col. Steven deMilliano, and the 211th Rescue Squadron commander, Lt. Col. Eric Budd, traveled to Lockheed Martin’s plant in Greenville, South Carolina this week to sign for the new aircraft. Members of the 176th Wing, along with family, friends, and retirees, met the aircraft for its arrival at JBER, and were able to view and tour the aircraft after it was greeted with a firetruck water arch.

The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
