Lt. Col. Daniel Flynn, the 711th Special Operations Squadron commander, talks to the crowd about the many Reserve accomplishments that took place with the MC-130E Combat Talon I at the retirement ceremony for the aircraft at Duke Field, Fla., April 25. Flynn spoke about the numerous missions in support of Operation Enduring and Iraqi Freedom as well as humanitarian missions after Hurricane Katrina and the Haiti earthquake. Aircrew, maintainers and many others turned out to remember and bid farewell to the Talon I on its official retirement from the Air Force. The last five Talons, located at Duke Field, will be delivered to the “boneyard” at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, N.M., by mid-May 2013. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Samuel King Jr.)
