Uzbek native returns to Central Asia as U.S. Airman

MANAS AIR BASE, KYRGYZSTAN -- Tech. Sgt. Kelman Khersonsky refuels an aircraft over Afghanistan during one of the last refueling missions of his deployment here, Oct. 29. Sergeant Khersonsky was one of more than 100 Pennsylvania Air National Guardsmen that deployed from Pittsburgh's 171st Air Refueling Wing to support operations in Afghanistan. For Sergeant Khersonsky, the month-long deployment was extra special; his daily routine as a KC-135 boom operator took him within sight of his childhood home of Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
