AFSCME members talk and pose with Maj. Gen. Allen B Tackett,
West Virginia's adjutant general just hours after the Base
Realignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) voted unanimously to
spare the Charleston based Air National Guard's 130th Airlift
Wing, thus saving nearly 1000 jobs generated by the Air Guard
base. AFSCME members (many with relatives and friends at the
base) and Locals wrote letters and made phone calls on behalf of
the 130th.
Maj. Gen. Tackett gave most of the credit for the base being
spared to Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va.. From left to right.
