Red Flag With a Difference
Many veterans of the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and even the 1991 Gulf War reluctantly admit that their Red Flag experience in the skies over Nevada was tougher than anything they faced in actual combat.
This spring, a new version of Red Flag was held in the U.S. Air Force�s vast training ranges north of Nellis AFB, and at dozens of other sites nationwide.
Some 6,500 missions were virtual sorties �flown� on a simulator.
