Alabama NewsCenter — Soldiers return safely to Alabama from Horn of Africa

By: Michael Tomberlin

Soldiers of the 1st Battalion, 58th Aviation Regiment returned home to Fort Rucker recently, following a nine month deployment to the Horn of Africa in support of Operation Enduring Sentinel.

“Mission success for the team; everybody is back home safe, so we couldn’t be happier to come back and spend time with friends and family,” said Lt. Col. Travis Betz, 1-58th commander.

The 1-58th, an airfield operations battalion, operated at four separate locations in the Horn of Africa, working with the United Nations and host nation forces.
