Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

5/20/2014 - SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE, Germany - -- U.S. Air Force A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft and Air National Guard personnnel from the 124th Fighter Wing out of Gowen Field, Idaho, returned to Europe May 16, 2014, to support Exercise Combined Resolve II.

"Exercise Combined Resolve II is a U.S. Army Europe-directed multinational exercise involving 15 NATO and European partner nations in the Grafenwoehr and Hohenfels area from May 15 to June 30," said Christian Marquardt, Joint Multinational Training Command public affairs spokesman from Emporia, Kan. "This is an interoperability exercise working on partnership tasks, because this is the way we are going to fight in the future."

U.S. Army Europe invited the 124th FW to support the joint multinational exercise. The A-10 pilots use close-air-support procedures and operations to assist ground forces from NATO allies.

-------
Above press release is saying exercise is from 15/5 untill 30/6......
Few options in my opinion:
Hogs only participate first twoo weeks
30/6 in press realease is wrong
30/5 as departure date is wrong
