AWACS crews from NATO have finished their mission in the US and are returning to Europe.

Theyâ€™ve been patrolling our skies since the September 11th attacks as part of â€˜Operation Noble Eagle.â€™ A special farewell ceremony was held this week at Tinker Air Force Base in Midwest City for the 800-airmen and women.
