The US Air National Guard is preparing for the largest movement of forces across the Atlantic Ocean in its history. The service will send 100 aircraft to the US to take part in the Air Defender 2023 military exercise.
Here's What We Know The upcoming exercise will take place from June 12 to 22.
They are designed to demonstrate the US Air National Guard's ability to quickly deploy and use forces across Europe in the event that war in Ukraine spreads to NATO countries. Lieutenant General Michael Loh made the announcement.
The United States will send approximately 100 aircraft to Germany for the 10-day exercise. They include fifth-generation F-35 Lightning II fighters, upgraded fourth-generation F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft and the older F-15C Eagle along with the legendary A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft. They will be supported by Pegasus air refuelers.
Air Defender 2023 will be the first exercise in which Finland, as a NATO member, will participate. It has not yet received F-35 Lightning II fifth-generation fighters, so it will send F/A-18 Super Hornets. Ingo Gerhartz, Lieutenant General of the German Air Force, announced about it.
The German military officer reminded that Germany ordered F-35 fighters in 2022. Deliveries will start in 2027 and pilots will go to the US for training in 2026. The deal to buy 35 aircraft was worth $8.85bn.

Weird.
Yeah exactly, and if all hell breaks out within states, especially red ones, they will not be around to provide even manpower, will they be, let alone God forbid, provide air cover if needed.
The times require looking beyond what would normally occur, because we are under assault if you still have not realized that fact, or are in denial of that fact. Red state governors should deny the federal government access to their guardsmen.
Your stuck on what America would have done before the communists, who now control this nation, will do.
The following link takes you to the War Room replay page.
The video(s) I'm directing you to will have the following, on the top of the video screen that opens, when you click on them:
1. THE WAR ROOM WITH STEPHEN K. BANNON EPISODE 2644 PART 2
2. THE WAR ROOM WITH STEPHEN K. BANNON EPISODE 2644 PART 3
Part 2 Shows Jack Posobiec only on the video screen, while
part 3 shows Steve Bannon & Jack Posobiec on the video screen. (Perhaps row 4 video 1 & 2, if the lineup remains the same)
Not exactly the best way to share videos, in my opinion. 😋
The War Room With Stephen K. Bannon April 7th, 2023 (Episode 2644 Part 3)
The following link describes the Pentagon referral to the DoJ regarding the document leak Jack Posobiec & Steve Bannon are talking about regarding the Ukraine war, in case you hadn't heard about it.
(Ignore the video that plays, as it is related but not about the print article)

Because our troupe numbers are way down because of the woke, soy-boys and she-he's running our military.???
This is a routine training exercise, they are not being sent to attack Russia as you keep saying, and they don’t exist for or have a role in domestic riots.
The role of a state's National Guard in the United States is to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasion, as required by the Constitution. It is generally called up for these tasks.
While the governor generally has been the one who dictates control over his state's national guard, but the president can & does override a governor's authority.
I spent several years in the National Guard, I know about it but I can’t figure out what your rants are about, they don’t make sense and you can’t seem to explain them.
I'm explaining clearly & distinctly, you are just refusing to see the new realities. I can't help you with that. You have to start seeing the new reality for yourself, and forget about what you personally experienced. It's not an uncommon problem, that people rely on what they experienced, while ignoring the evidence that is all around them. It's denial, pure & simple. Deny at the peril of us all.
You also prove that you wouldn't even watch the videos to which I directed you to.
stop the world, I want to get off!
Perhaps you could explain your goofy ramblings if you would quit trying to tell me about myself and just try and make some sense.
I get that you have some nutty idea that these Guardsmen are being sent over to fight Russia, which is crazy, but you seem to also have some other crazy idea that you can’t seem to explain, something about fighter jets being used in America I think, but you are too crazy to be able to get it out.
It was a join effort, of course. ARNG had to MOVE and AFR moved us.
There’s nothing like sitting in a sling seat of a C-130 mere INCHES from a tied down TANK the size of a house, to make you wonder about your insignificant life as a whole!
God Bless the Load Master who can tie a decent knot, LOL!
Can’t help you, because you are in denial and refuse to see reality.
Denial is your refusal to say what you are fantasizing about, give us some clues, and your goofy idea of talking about my experiences, what experiences are you talking about?
You keep posting but not explaining yourself.
President Pervert’ s draining our strategic petroleum reserves dry too.
And he’s letting thousands of Chinese cross into our country illegally.
History will show the Chinese and Ukrainians made the best deal in the history of the world when they bought Hunter Biden and the Big Guy for 30 pieces of silver.
True story.
I flew into Tuzla, Bosnia in a C-130 in 1995. The Serbs painting the aircraft with their SAM radar across border, as, I found out later, they always did.
We were part of a big team doing security work and since the pilots had a full load of passengers, they thought they’d be funny...
Anyway, we heard the missile lock radar warning going off (very loud!) and they dropped about 1000 feet at the same time. I was not far from the cockpit and thought we were going down. Just as I was about to scream like a little girl (many had already, so I don’t think I’d be alone), they leveled out. I heard chuckling from up front.
Yeah. Funny. Ha-ha, Captain.
But they won't. Ping me on July 1st and we can discuss then.
I mentioned that to MeganC, but she knows all. I was wrong and know nothing heh.
heh
All the people that posted you the facts on Finland being an official member of NATO on Tuesday and you still don’t know?
When I went on that REFORGER mission, we started in C-130’s (Madison, WI to Maine, stopped in the Azores for re-fueling, then touched down somewhere (forget where; Spain?) before Germany.
Then, they put us in teeny-tiny puddle jumpers and of course, we hit a thunderstorm, so it was a pretty rocky ride with many getting sick.
When we landed, my 1Sgt was there to greet us, and even though it was pouring, I got on my hands and knees and kissed the ground, LOL!
