838th_Air_Expeditionary_Advisory_Group
The 838th Air Expeditionary Advisory Group (838 AEAG) was the ISAF host unit at Shindand Air Base that as part of NATO Air Training Command - Afghanistan[1] was training and advising the Afghan Air Force Shindand Air Wing.[2] It was a group of the United States Air Force under the 438th Air Expeditionary Wing headquartered at Kabul.[citation needed]
Advisors from the group have conducted humanitarian missions around Shindand Air Base.[3]
In mid 2011 the group received equipment (tents, environmental control units, latrine systems, shower systems, generators and electrical equipment) from FOB Delaram II to create a new camp for approximately 300 additional incoming personnel being deployed to Shindand.[4]
