Jeff Lee joins a U.S. Air Force aircrew onboard a C-17 Globemaster III for a subject matter exchange and a first-hand look at a night tactical-airdrop sortie Nov. 23 as they take off from Royal New Zealand Air Force Base Ohakea, New Zealand, during Exercise Kiwi Flag. Lee joined the aircrew for a subject matter exchange on a U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III during the multilateral RNZAF-sponsored tactical airlift exercise. Lee is the detachment commander for the RSAF contingent deployed to KF. He is assigned to 122 Squadron at home station in Singapore. The U.S. pilots are deployed to the 517th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron which comprises two C-17s and Airmen from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, and Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. The deployed U.S. team is conducting airlift support and cargo and personnel airdrops for the exercise in conjunction with Pacific military partners from New Zealand, the Republic of Singapore, Australia and New Caledonia. Blake, a Los Angeles native, is deployed from the 517th Airlift Squadron at JBER where he is the support flight commander.
