ORE tests base's mission readiness

Released by 23rd Wing Public Affairs



9/30/2011 - A fleet of A-10C Thunderbolt IIs assigned to the 23rd Wing stand by during a phase II operational readiness exercise at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., Sept. 28, 2011. OREs are designed to test the base’s ability to conduct missions while deployed. The maintenance units prepared and generated A-10s daily. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Joshua J. Garcia)

Please note: The second A-10C from right is 78-0697 (A10-0317) from the 74th FS, but it lacks the shark mouth and wears a bow number. Anybody who can/will explain me the reason?
