Squadron 1 15 arrived at Prince Sultan

00:08.110 --> 00:10.250
Air Base Saudi Arabia last week

00:12.840 --> 00:14.840
From day one . Interoperability has

00:14.840 --> 00:17.360
been outstanding . Our planning process

00:17.360 --> 00:19.590
with the 378 and how they received

00:19.600 --> 00:22.320
forces here has been better than I have

00:22.320 --> 00:26.150
seen . We are absolutely in sync with

00:26.160 --> 00:28.740
the joint forces here as well as our

00:28.750 --> 00:31.650
partner and ally nations in

00:31.650 --> 00:34.880
theater . The three 78th Air

00:34.880 --> 00:36.870
expeditionary wing serves as a

00:36.870 --> 00:39.900
strategic operating location for both

00:39.900 --> 00:42.580
US Air Forces Central Command as well

00:42.580 --> 00:44.160
as U . S . Central Command

00:45.240 --> 00:47.420
strategically , especially from this

00:47.420 --> 00:50.730
location and the flexibility that it

00:50.730 --> 00:54.210
provides . We enhance the joint force

00:54.220 --> 00:57.830
commanders flexibility and available

00:57.830 --> 00:59.760
assets to fluidly move around the

00:59.770 --> 01:03.000
theater . We bring a

01:03.010 --> 01:06.290
long and short range strike and

01:06.290 --> 01:09.200
defensive counter air capability and

01:09.200 --> 01:11.380
bolster the credible combat power that

01:11.380 --> 01:13.900
we're looking to project in concert

01:13.910 --> 01:16.350
with our partners and allies to further

01:16.350 --> 01:19.120
stabilize this region . Staff Sergeant
