To confirm the serials of the four Mirage 2000's resident at Barksdale this  
week:
 
M.2000D 665  3-X(F)  EC03.003
M.2000D 671  3-XK  EC03.003
M.2000D 683  3-IV  EC01.003
M.2000D 686  3-JH  EC02.003


I'm pretty sure about the "F" on 665 though it may have been a "T."  The crew 
ladder was in the way! They have been active every day and are using  the 
standard Air Warrior callsign of CASINO.
