Kiowa Warrior helicopter pilots are taking the fight to the enemy in Afghanistan. The 101st Aviation Brigade's "Task Force Outfront" aviators have flown over 6000 hours since arriving in January, and Outfront averages over eight missions a day. SSG Pat Malone introduces us to one pilot who's dedicated his life to supporting Soldiers on the ground.

Task Force Outfront provides reconnaissance, lift, and close-combat attack support to Task Force Bayonet's area of operations.
