August was another month in which I didn’t have as much time with the radios as I would have liked, but I still had the opportunity to hear some interesting things. The month began with a mini-road trip to Charleston, where I had the opportunity to listen to the Joint Base Charleston and Naval Support Activity Charleston sites of the USAF 57C TRS.

• 3-17 CAV at Hunter AAF concluded delivery of its new AH-64Es; so far, I’ve caught 19 of the 24 on the radios
• MAG-31 and MAWTS-1 conducted a Marine Division Tactics Course (MDTC) with a detachment of VMFT-401 F-5Ns helping provide Red Air. Something unusual was VMFT-401’s use of ADS-B while flying the Red Air missions and by some flights coming to Beaufort and returning home. It was the first time I’ve noted them using ADS-B while at Beaufort.
• VP-16 has begun using 3 digit callsigns; instead of TALON ##, they’ve been using TALON 8##
• I caught an E-2D conducting aerial refueling off of the South Carolina coast; it was the first time I’ve heard an E-2 doing AR work; it’s a capability they’ve only recently added to the aircraft.
