The GO/NO GO games lasted until August before we finally went. We headed to Howard AFB in Panama to stage out of (directly attached to the Air Force’s 612th Tactical Aircraft Group) and flew to Peru in a combination of Air Force, Air Force Reserve, Air National Guard, and Southern Air Transport (?) C-130s during the first week. Once we got there we all got busy setting up equipment and building fighting positions. We were assisted by host nation air control liaison and our security was augmented by Peruvian Air Force (FAP), all under the command of Comandante Oviedo. Our mission was to integrate into an air, land, and sea radar surveillance command and control system to identify airborne narco traffickers.
