By Senior Airman River Bruce Pacific Air Forces Public Affairs

A 9th Expeditionary Bomb Squadron B-1B Lancer takes off at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, May 8, 2020. It was one of two B-1s conducting a training mission in the South China Sea in support of Pacific Air Forces’ training efforts and strategic deterrence missions to reinforce the rules-based international order in the Indo-Pacific region. The 9th EBS is deployed from the 7th Bomb Wing, Dyess AFB, Texas.  This is the first BTF deployment to the PACAF theater since the B-2 Spirit from the 393rd Bomb Squadron, Whiteman AFB, Missouri, deployed to Hawaii in January 2019.
