Description
English: A member of the 96th Bomber Maintenance Squadron walks the wing of a U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortress bomber as the squadron performs post-mission maintenance at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, on Sept. 4, 1996, after the aircraft's return from launching cruise missiles into Iraq. Two Stratofortress bombers delivered a payload of Conventional Air Launched Cruise Missiles against selected air defense targets south of the 33rd parallel in Iraq. The attacks are designed to reduce risks to the pilots who will enforce the expanded no-fly zone. President Clinton announced an expanded no-fly zone in response to an Iraqi attack against a Kurdish faction. The larger no-fly zone in Southern Iraq will make it easier for U.S. and coalition partners to contain Saddam Hussein's aggression. The B-52's are deployed to Guam from the 2nd Bomber Wing, Barksdale Air Force Base, La.
Date Taken on 4 September 1996
