Golden Raven
Senior Master Sgt. Stewart Brann, superintendent of the 354th Fighter Wing Legal Office and a member of the Eielson Air Force Base Exercise Evaluation Team, uses a radio to contact the 354th Fighter Wing Inspector General office to report the status of the deployment line scenario during the Golden Raven Operational Readiness Exercise on March 7, 2008 at Eielson Air Force Base. The Golden Raven Operational Readiness Exercise is an evaluation of the 354th Fighter Wing's ability to prepare and deploy personnel, equipment and support assets to a combat environment. The exercise consists of four graded areas: initial response and deployment, employment, ability to survive and operate (ATSO) and combat response.
