Red Flag-Alaska; F-16

Senior Airman Ken Filewich, a crewchief with the 80th Aircraft Maintenance Unit, "throws snakes" as Capt. Jesse Proctor, 80th Fighter Squadron F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot, taxis out of a hangar during Red Flag-Alaska April 16. "Throwing snakes" is a visual way for 80th FS Headhunters, known as the "Juvats," to show their motto, "Crush 'Em." Airman Filewich and Captain Proctor are deployed from the 8th Fighter Wing, Kunsan Air Base, Republic of Korea. Red Flag-Alaska is a field training exercise that provides joint offensive counter-air, interdiction, close air support, and large force employment training in a simulated combat environment.
