PORTLAND, Oregon -- The Oregon Air National Guard's 142nd Fighter Wing will conduct a 24 hour combat readiness exercise November 21-22, 2017.
This exercise tests the wing's ability to generate air power within roughly 24 hours after being notified. This allows the wing commander to evaluate the wing's ability to respond with minimal notice and meet or exceed the tasking timelines. The exercise will end after 12 F-15's take off on the morning of November 22nd.
