Nevada Army Guard's Aviation Unit returns home from Afghanistan tour
Soldiers with the Nevada Army Guard's G Company, 2/238th Aviation Unit returned home recently after a tour in Afghanistan.
"All 60 soldiers in both rotations of the 2/238th Aviation unit's mission to Afghanistan are home safely in Nevada," said SFC Erick Studenicka of the Nevada National Guard.
The soldiers have been in Afghanistan for the majority of the past year performing medical evacuation missions aboard Black Hawk helicopters. Their return marks the conclusion of their mission with Operation Freedom’s Sentinel.
A demobilization ceremony that had been scheduled for Friday was canceled due to health concerns.
