Telephone switcher plugs into Iraqi air force

Tech. Sgt. RK Stephey stands beside a Doppler VHF Omni-directional Radio system he and experts from Hanscom Air Force Base, Mass., installed for the Iraqi Army Aviation Command at Camp Taji, Iraq. Sergeant Stephey redeployed to Misawa Air Base, Japan, after six months of helping his Iraqi partners set up their first defense networking system and initiating various communications programs. Sergeant Stephey is a communications advisor for the base transition team and calls Prescott, Ariz., home. (U.S. Air Force/Tech. Sgt. Jason Lake)
As the 321st Expeditionary Mission Support Advisory Group base transition team's communications advisor, Sergeant Stephey has been working hand in hand with his Iraqi counterparts as they set up their first Internet-based defense network system, called I3P. The 18-year Air Force veteran has been helping set up fiber-optic cables to link Taji with other nearby bases. With the end of his six-month tour around the corner, Sergeant Stephey said his deployment to Iraq has been one of the most unique of his career. "We still have a lot of work here to do," said 1st Lt. Erin Werling, the Detachment 1 base transition team deputy chief, who is deployed from Hill Air Force Base, Utah, and hails from Findlay, Ohio. "Our team has worked very hard to advise, train and assist our Iraqi partners as we prepare for end of mission. The months ahead will be difficult, but our team will get the job done.
