Lt. Col. Juris Jansons, commander of the 495th Fighter Group, speaks to group Airmen and guests during the 495th Fighter Group activation ceremony, Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., March 8, 2013. Jansons has administrative control of more than 600 Airmen assigned to active associate units linked to Air Combat Command. The activation at Shaw marks a historical moment in the Air Force’s ongoing initiative to integrate active-duty Airmen, Air Reserve Component and Air National Guard units to streamline training, spending and resource use. These integrated units are called “active associate” units. The 495th Fighter Group will lead its active associate units into the future of Air Force pilot training.
