Carrero-Perez and Senior Airman Ci Ci Alonzo, pause in the cargo bay of their Lockheed C-130 Hercules for a group photo following their historic flight. A crew of six Airmen at a forward deployed location climbed aboard a Lockheed C-130 Hercules together recently for the first time in their careers. But something distinguished this mission from others they had flown --it was the first time an all-female C-130 crew flew a combat mission. The women were all permanently assigned to the 43rd Airlift Wing at Pope Air Force Base, North Carolina (USA), and were deployed to the 737th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron flying cargo and troops in and out of Iraq, Afghanistan and the Horn of Africa.
