The Ohio Air National Guard’s 179th Airlift Wing conducted a C-130 Hercules orientation flight for approximately 20 U.S. Embassy staff members during Exercise Load Diffuser, June 7 at Kecskemet Air Base, Hungary. The 179AW traveled to the air base with two aircraft and nearly 40 Airmen to participate in Load Diffuser 17, a two-week Hungarian-led multinational exercise focused on enhancing interoperability capabilities and skills among NATO allied and European partner air forces by conducting joint operations and air defenses to maintain joint readiness, while also bolstering relationships within the U.S. Air National Guard’s State Partnership Program initiatives. Ohio became state partners with Hungary in 1993. Embassy staff were invited to participate in the flight to gain a better understanding of the Ohio National Guard mission and the SPP.
