[MilCom] Coastal Georgia MilCom; July 2018

[Mac McCormick III]

I didn’t have as much radio time during July as I would have liked, but
none the less, it was certainly an interesting month. The big event of the
month was a Sentry Savannah exercise out of the Georgia Air National
Guard’s Air Dominance Center at the Savannah-Hilton Head International
Airport. Later in the month, some AH-1Ws and UH-1Ys from HMLA-269 worked
out of Savannah-Hilton Head IAP flying missions to Townsend Range.  July
also saw another detachment of VMFT-401 F-5Ns at MCAS Beaufort as part of
the F-35B training program. Some other interesting activity was E-2Cs from
VAW-120 doing practice approaches in Savannah, urban Close Air Support
training involving F-16s from Shaw AFB over Brunswick, GA, and F-15Es from
Seymour-Johnson AFB working at Townsend Range. While not military, I caught
a Boeing 747 Large Cargo Freighter (LCF) over the radio for the first time
early one morning as one departed Boeing’s facility at Charleston for
Anchorage, Alaska.
