Thousands of miles from their home stations with few other bluesuiters around, distraught Airmen deployed to Iraq have created a replacement for their stateside Wingmen. The emotionally disturbed, but ingenious Airmen are using buffalo wings and duct tape in an effort to recreate the Wingman buddies they left behind when they deployed halfway across the world. The Wingman concept, which was created in 2004 by then-Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. John P. Jumper, was designed to ensure every Airman had a someone -- usually another Airman -- they could count on to help them out, offer friendly advice, or simply be there for emotional support. In a deployed environment, thousands of miles from their home station Wingmen, some deployed Airmen are feeling lost and emotionally disconnected. However, this new “Buffalo Wing Man” may be the answer. And if it doesn’t work out between you and your savory little friend, just tear open a a packet of ranch dressing and devour the little guy.
