JFO training consists of Airmen traveling to Fort Sill, Oklahoma, for two weeks to learn to communicate over radios, assess ranges of targets, properly read a map and call for different close air support, whether working with the Army, Navy, Marines or Coast Guard, or receiving support from aircraft or ships. The members then come back to Malmstrom for more training to learn additional tools and techniques centric to the base’s mission. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Daniel Brosam)
