CV-22 Deploys "On Wing"

And maybe a few prayers?

Well the CV-22 has performed its first self-deployment. In honor of the milestone, here's a patch I got from the SPO (Test Force?- can't remember which) waaaay back when my unit supported the program. Although I don't think the stuff we tested went beyond proof-of-concept (yet)- it is good to see the AF special operators moving quietly forward.
