Soldiers from the 1106th Theater Aviation Sustainment Maintenance Group (TASMG) Task Force 14 returned home to Fresno, California in December, 2013, just in time for the holidays after successfully completing a nine-month mission to Afghanistan and Kuwait. The 1106th TASMG, based at an aviation facility in Fresno, is tasked to perform aircraft maintenance for Army National Guard aviation units in 13 western states. In February, 2013, about 100 soldiers from the TASMG were mobilized into Task Force 14 and deployed to Afghanistan and Kuwait. The task force was assigned to provide depot-level maintenance for two combat aviation brigades in theater that were in command of about 400 aircraft.The task force was responsible for repairing aircraft that had sustained damage beyond the level that the brigades could repair on their own.
