Two airmen, from the Guam Air National Guard’s 254th Force Support Squadron and the 254th Security Forces Squadron, departed in the early morning hours of Feb. 8 en route to a deployment in support of Operation Inherent Resolve in Southwest Asia.
Airman First Class Keith Lujan, an FSS airman, is tasked with enhancing combat-readiness by providing worldwide agile combat support and community services by delivering superior morale, welfare, recreation, manpower and personnel programs services.
AFC Christopher Camacho, an SFS airman, is tasked with the protection of federal property from hazards such as sabotage, espionage, trespass, theft, fire, and accident or willful damage and destruction, to maintain law and order, preserve the peace, and protect life and civil rights within the U.S. Central Command Theater of Operations in order to engineer combat power and establish and sustain combat platforms.
“The Guard asks the public for their continued support of our airmen and their families,” said Lt. Col. Esther Aguigui, The Adjutant General of the Guam National Guard. “We also have airmen from the 254th Air Base Group, the 254th Security Forces Squadron, and the 254th Force Support Squadron who are currently deployed or supporting missions around the world. Please keep them and these airmen in your thoughts and prayers now as they prepare to deploy and for the duration of their deployment.”
A couple more airmen are scheduled to leave in the next few weeks and are scheduled to be deployed for approximately six months. (PR)
