U.S. Army National Guard and Reserv Components Continue to Provide Valuable Support to Active Army Units In Iraq and Afganistan.
U.S. Army Apache battalions and soldiers – answering the call of duty.
The Boeing Company Apache Program leaders and teammates are proud to continue support all of our nation's great aviation heroes. Seasoned and well-trained Army aviators and maintenance crews continue to be deployed to Afghanistan and to Iraq. Many soldiers serving in Apache battalions have bravely faced two, three or more tours of duty since late 2001/early 2002. These soldiers continue to live the Army Values – Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless-Service, Honor, Integrity and Personal Courage.
