Airmen with the 214th Engineering Installation Squadron (EIS) of the Louisiana Air National Guard (LANG) gathered in early December for a deployment ceremony on board Naval Air Station/Joint Reserve Base (NAS/JRB) New Orleans. The 214th EIS is scheduled to deploy in support of Operation Freedom Sentinel in Africa and Operation Spartan Shield in the Middle East in early 2021. The squadron’s missions are to mobilize and deploy authorized resources and supporting assets to accomplish the engineering, installation, maintenance, reconstitution, and/or replacement of communications-computer systems, ATCALS and meteorological/navigational aid systems. That includes support of war and mobilization plans and worldwide contingency requirements, according to its website. Brig. Gen. D. Keith Waddell, Adjutant General for the LANG addressed the airmen telling them: “You are the best, and I am very proud of each and every one of you and your families.” (NAS/JRB New Orleans Currents 01/21).
