The Wyoming Air National Guard's 153rd Airlift Wing could lose approximately 210 airmen and four aircrafts from their active duty associate unit sometime after October of this year.
The associate Air Force unit, the 30th Airlift Squadron, would be closed under the President's 2015 budget proposal.
Adjutant General of the Wyoming National Guard, Luke Reiner, says "the 30th Airlift Squadron is a vital component to our national defense and has made the Wyoming Air National guard stronger by its presence."
He says the Wyoming National Guard will work to mitigate the effects of this decision.
