AFSOC MC-130s (of all varieties), and their crews, have been largely unsung during Op Enduring Freedom, but some day, some amazing tales will be told.

AFSOC may not be 'SOF' in the Army's eyes, but our Army brethren would be hard pressed to find another group of fliers willing and able to do half the things the MC-130 crews do.

Keep them in your prayers.
