By WYATT OLSON | STARS AND STRIPES Published: January 26, 2021 F-35 and F-16 fighters will fly from an austere airfield “carved out of the jungle” in Guam during the Cope North exercise next month as part of the Air Force’s goal of deploying aircraft and airmen more broadly in the region. The demonstration is part of ongoing efforts to integrate the Air Force’s agile combat employment concept, or ACE, into its combat operations, said Brig. Gen. Jeremy Sloane, commander of the 36th Wing at Guam’s Andersen Air Force Base, during an Air Force Association webinar Tuesday. “The Air Force describes ACE as utilizing a hub-and-spoke network – permanent, well established hubs and more remote, austere spokes,” he said. Airmen are specially trained to rapidly “deploy, disperse and maneuver combat capability throughout the theater” under ACE.

3.4 quake 23 Dec 3:28 pm (GMT -6)
An earthquake of magnitude 3.4 occurred only 8 minutes ago 6 miles southwest of Waynoka, Oklahoma, United States, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported.
The quake hit at a very shallow depth of 1.1 miles beneath the epicenter near Waynoka, Woods County, Oklahoma, USA, early afternoon on Wednesday 23 December 2020 at 3:28 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) which listed the quake at magnitude 3.4 as well.

I was using my laptop while sitting on a plastic stool outside of my house and felt swaying along with the ground. It felt as if I was dancing along with our home, the trees, and the whole neighborhood block. | 10 users found this interesting.
