Iraq troop pullout finishes
The last batch of Japan's Air Self-Defense Force (ASDF) troops returned yesterday from the Iraqi airlift mission to Japan.
Some 140 ASDF soldiers, who had stationed in Kuwait, departed from Ali Al Salem Air Base earlier in the day and arrived at Nagoya Airport near the ASDF's Komaki air base in Aichi Prefecture at about 8:30 am.
