It’s TACP weekend on Grey Ghost Gear’s Facebook page.
JTACs and ROMADs can post a picture of themselves after liking the GGG page, tag the GGG page, and be entered to win free kit (GGG recently sponsored the TACP Association Reunion). Looks like it may be for Coalition FACs, because there’s a British Army JTAC in there too.
Great article on JTACs from Michael Yon: http://www.michaelyon-online.com/jtac-joint-terminal-attack-controller.htm

I’m saddened to see the lack of comments in this section but not surprised. The JTAC (and similar AFSC/MOS’s) never get the recognition and love they deserve. If you had to point to one guy who is the literal interface between the forces of the air and the forces on the ground, it is the JTAC. Bleeding and dying with his ground brothers, the JTAC carries on his thankless mission. These “Angels With Dirty Faces” call down the wrath of the heavens to smite the enemy. Sleep well, ground warrior, sleep well, knowing the JTAC Angel will do everything in his power to protect and support you.
Let me be the first to say, thank you JTAC Angel, THANK YOU!
