Concluding American air base Niger.

"Air Base 201: Chapter 3"

Almost three solid years of construction gone in the proverbial heartbeat. Coup by the military of Niger rendering the air base now off-limits to American warplanes?

See Part 3 the concluding You Tube video Air Base 201:

"Nigerien Air Base 201 in Agadez, Niger is the largest Air Force-led Construction project in recent history. It’s 6000-foot runway will expand the Air Force’s ability to project air power to western Africa to combat growing violent extremists in the region. 600 REDHORSE Airmen spent 1000 days battling environmental and logistical hurdles to build the critical base in the Sahel region"

REDHORSE = Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineers.

"Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineer (RED HORSE) squadrons are the United States Air Force's heavy-construction units. Their combat engineering capabilities are similar to those of the U.S. Navy Seabees and U.S. Army heavy-construction organizations."

REDHORSE unit their performance superlative. Yeoman duty done exceptionally. I hate to think that air base 201 will turn out to be nothing more than a grand training exercise. But for some reason I greatly fear so!
