Seven
members of the 252nd Combat Communications Group,
headquartered at Camp Murray, Tacoma WA, deployed during the first part of May to Bosnia
in the former Yugoslavia, in support of Operation Joint Endeavor. Their mission is
to operate satellite terminals for NATO Ground Forces at deployed headquarters for the
Stabilization Force and Operation Joint Guard. They will be serving on a 120 day
tour, joining other Air National Guardsmen from other states. This was in response
to a Presidential Selective Reserve Call-Up Executive Order. The members are
assigned to three separate NATO Air Base Satellite Terminals in Bosnia.
