During a six-month period from Jul. 15, 2017 to Jan. 15, 2018, the 74th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron (EFS) struck 44 percent of all targets during Operation INHERENT RESOLVE (OIR), with just 12 A-10s. This help the unit earned the Gallant Unit Citation, the fifth to do so and the first from an individual squadron.
