Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lt. Col. Sam Milam, 75th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron commander, and Capt. Jozsef Jonas, a 75th EFS pilot, pose for a photo after completing a close air support mission that helped save lives of coalition troops in Afghanistan, Feb. 20. The 75th EFS was deployed to Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, to provide close air support to ground troops and convoys as they tried to improve the quality of life for the Afghan people. Capt. Jonas, a Hungarian immigrant who is the son of a Soviet tank driver, flies the A-10 Thunderbolt II "tank killer" for the U.S. Air Force. Col. Milam also flies the A-10 and recently completed a mission that logged more than 10K combat flight hours - a historic milestone for the unit deployed here since last fall. The two pilots, who were deployed here from Moody Air Force Base, Ga., returned home this week after the 75th EFS completed its six-month rotation. The unit was replaced by its sister squadron, the 74th Fighter Squadron, which is also from Moody AFB.
