HAMPTON — — The U.S. Air Force will inactivate the 71st Fighter Squadron during a ceremony Thursday at Langley Air Force
Base.

The squadron, known as the Ironmen, flew F-15 Eagles out of Saudi Arabia during the Persian Gulf War, according to an Air
Force press release. It was credited with the war's first air-to-air victory.

The squadron, which moved to Langley in 1975, is one of three assigned to the 1st Fighter Wing. The inactivation comes as
the Air Force tries to cut costs and modernize its fleet of planes, the release states.

personally I think this sucks : doh

	The Old Sarge What is Irish diplomacy? It’s the ability to tell a man to go to hell, in such a manner he will look forward to making the trip. And buy his ticket!
