Military training to take place around Tyndall through March the 8th

            Tyndall air force base will be taking part in a military training mission over the next 2 weeks, so you might notice more air traffic after dark.

The exercise will be conducted through March 8th on military training areas at Fort Benning, Georgia, Tyndall Air Force Base, and in the vicinity of surrounding communities.

3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, based at Fort Benning is conducting the military exercise along with units from the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, from Fort Campbell, Ky., and Air Force Special Operations Command from Hurlburt Field, Fla.

Rangers will use training ammunition and other training devices to make the military exercise as realistic as possible.

There will also be periods of increased air traffic to include low-flying aircraft, both helicopters and airplanes, during hours of darkness. 

This is a routine exercise, conducted periodically to maintain a high level of readiness for the military personnel involved. 

Tyndall says that every measure to reduce the amount of noise associated with the exercise will be taken.
