В Ираке дело дошло до авиаполевых дивизий
3000 наземных летунов служат следователями, тюремными караульными и стрелками на грузовиках снабжения.
In an effort to augment a U.S. Army strained for manpower, the Air Force has begun assigning thousands of ground personnel in combat roles to support Army operations.
The Los Angeles Times reports that some of the new roles for airmen include acting as interrogators, prison sentries and gunners on supply trucks.
In all, some 3,000 Air Force personnel are being assigned these new roles, and some are being deployed for as long as 12 months rather than four.
