Falcon Virgo Exercises

This article will be used as a tool to summarize the units and frequencies used during Falcon Virgo exercises. These exercises are usually announced in the general press, unlike many Combat Air Patrol missions, and are therefore very easy to prepare frequencies and other information. These notes come from various 2007 missions held in the DC metro area.
