[MilCom] RE;AIR FORCE AWARDS CRAF CONTRACTS

[Joe Cobb]

When the 101st was deploying at the start of the Iraq
war i noticed a Delta 777 and a United 747-400 going
into Ft Campbell as United/Delta 9xxx but when they
left they were using the REACH callsign which told mw
they had the soldiers onboard headed overseas. You
could follow the flights into KHOP on flight trackers
but when they changed over to REACH you couldn't
follow them out.
