When an airwoman for the 587th gave a concert for her companions, her comrades made her a white silk dress out of parachute fabric to wear while she sang.

The Canadian mission includes six CF-18 fighter jets, a refueling tanker aircraft, two surveillance planes and one airlift aircraft, with about 600 airmen and airwomen based in Kuwait.
