Personnel assigned to the Civil Air Patrol's South Carolina Wing participate in a homeland defense training exercise with the South Carolina Air National Guard's F-16 Fighting Falcons over the South Carolina midlands, Sept. 29, 2016.
The SCANG jets, based at McEntire Joint National Guard Base, simulated responding to a threat from a civilian aircraft. Partnerships such as these strengthen relationships while offering valuable learning opportunities to meet the challenges of keeping our skies safe from any threat.
