When Idaho had the A-10C: Air Guard’s family day, food, fun & gatling guns! Saylor Creek Range, 2012.

On 05AUG2012, Idaho Air Guard’s 124th Fighter Wing (FW) invited their families to the Saylor Creek Range, for a family day and a demonstration of the A-10C Thunderbolt-2.

Officially, it was called ‘Kin Appreciation Day’.

The A-10C demonstration also included Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTAC) calling in the air-strikes.

Burgers! I edited from video via Staff Sergeant Bob Barney:
