The attack is also the first major combat operation since President Barack Obama ordered 30,000 U.S. reinforcements here in December to try to turn the tide of the war.

Pilot for a Day

Brendan Thompson enjoys the view from a personalized F-15C fighter jet cockpit Friday morning January 29, 2010 at Elmendorf Air Force Base. Thompson, 13, his brother Joshua Poole, 9, and mom Cristin Poole spent the day on base courtesy of the Air Force and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The three toured fighters in Hangar 3, visited the control tower, watched F-15s and an F-22 take off on a training exercise, checked out a C-17A Globemaster transport plane, and experienced a flight simulator. Diagnosed with aplastic anemia a year ago, Thompson and his family will head to Seattle soon to discuss treatment options. After that, Flying would be awesome!, he concluded.
