153rd AW: 2013 MAFFS training
A Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System-equipped C-130 from the 153rd Airlift Wing, after following a U.S. Forest Service lead plane, performs a training mission which includes water drops near the Medicine Bow National Forest, May 10, 2013. The Wyoming Air National Guard's 153rd AW held its annual MAFFS certification and re-certification training. When it is determined MAFFS is needed, the National Interagency Fire Center through U.S. Northern Command requests the Department of Defense's U.S. Air Force resources.
