Twenty-five members of the 165th Airlift Wing and one C-130 Aircraft returned to the Savannah Air National Guard Base November 10 signaling an end to the constant rotations the 165th AW has performed since the early days of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Since that time they have performed over 7,100 flying hours while completing over 3,700 combat sorties with a 98 percent completion rate for both Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Over seventy percent of the unit's personnel have taken part in Operation Iraqi Freedom or Operation Enduring Freedom. The 165th AW will be moving to a Air Expeditionary Force cycle where their commitment's overseas would be about four months long. The next AEF cycle for the 165th AW is expected for March 2006.
