Air Force Reservists called to duty


Associated Press

About three dozen Charleston Air Force reservists were reporting for active duty Monday to support the war on terror, the Air Force said.

The members of the 315th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron will be used to transport and care for injured service members around the world.

Those being called for duty include flight crews and support workers.

Gov. Mark Sanford was formerly a member of the unit. In March, Sanford transferred to the Air Force's National Security Emergency Preparedness Agency, which helps coordinate between the military and state agencies in times of natural disaster or homeland emergencies.
