Twenty-one C-130Es from the 43rd Airlift Wing from Pope Air Force Base, North Carolina, line the taxiway at Camp Mackall Air Field, south of Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Almost 1,000 personnel deployed with the aircraft and set up a tent city beside the strip to test the bare base operating capabilities of the Wing. The tents are erected in close proximity to the aircraft both for logistical and security reasons. Flight crews and maintenance personnel can walk to the aircraft, and the same forces can guard the entire encampment. Special Forces units from Fort Bragg performed enemy attack and perimeter probe exercises throughout the deployment for Exercise GRYPHON WARRIOR 99-01

The Fighting Gryphon of the 43rd Airlift Wing. When the 23rd Wing Flying Tigers was re-designated the 43rd Airlift Wing, the Operations Group Commander, Colonel Gordon Ettenson, wanted a distinctive marking to replace the shark teeth of the Flying Tigers that were being removed.

Embossed in leather front was a rough depiction of a gryphon (or griffin). Dave Davenport, a photographer with the Pope Air Force Base Visual Information Support Center, reworked the logo into the design applied to the 43rd...
