192nd Intelligence Squadron tests ability to support first responders

Airmen from the Virginia Air National Guard’s 192nd Intelligence Squadron, 192nd Fighter Wing, from Joint Base Langley-Eustis, team up with Virginia Army National Guard aviators, crew chiefs and mechanics to establish an air operations cell Sept. 9, 2014, at Chesapeake Regional Airport in Chesapeake, Va., during a domestic operations exercise. Sentinel Phoenix II, which ran from Sept. 8-12, simulated a large fire in the Great Dismal Swamp and tested the ability of the 192nd IS to provide imagery collection and analysis in support of first responders during a state emergency. Virginia Army National Guard Soldiers flew a UH-72 Lakota helicopter over the swamp, sending live video back to the air operations cell at the airport and from there back to Camp Pendleton, where the 192nd IS established a base of operations for the exercise.
