Welcome home to the 148th Fighter Wing! All of us at B105 salute the brave men and women serving our country at home and abroad, as well as their families.

The Northlands NewsCenter reported that this recent deployment was the fourth overseas for the wing, but the first to Afghanistan, a part of Operation Enduring Freedom.

The Bulldogs provided Close Air Support, protecting coalition ground forces, a mission that included intense training six months ahead of this summer's deployment.
