Air Force Times: B-2s to deploy to Guam in support of South Korea
The Air Force will send three B-2 bombers to Guam as part of a normal rotation to bolster ally South Korea, Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh said Monday.
"We are in the process right now of deploying three B-2s on a scheduled rotation to Andersen Air Base in Guam," Welsh said. "We continue to have airmen stationed on the Korean Peninsula who are there full time who are ready for whatever might happen, and they are ready everyday."
Welsh declined to say when the bombers would deploy, noting the sensitivity of operational information.
