Airmen and Marines support Afghanistan retrograde

Aircrew from the 9th Airlift Squadron pose in front of a C-5M Super Galaxy after completing a mission to Afghanistan Oct. 7, 2014, at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia. These Airmen transported more than 266,000 pounds of cargo as part of retrograde operations in Afghanistan. Aircrews for the retrograde operations, managed by the 385th Air Expeditionary Group Detachment 1, surpassed 11 million pounds of cargo transported in a 50-day period. During this time frame, crews under the 385th AEG broke Air Mobility Command’s operational cargo load record five times. The heaviest load to date is 280,880 pounds.
