   Michigan - A 9,000-foot section of M-28 in the Upper Peninsula played host   
   to a history combat training exercise on Wednesday, June 29.   
      
   While military aircraft have landed on U.S. highways before, this was the   
   first time they landed on a highway and then were quickly refueled and   
   rearmed while running, before taking off again. The method is called   
   "integrated combat turns," or ICTs, and is a vital part of the U.S.   
   Air Force's Agile Combat Employment doctrine, of being ready to execute   
   missions quickly and in unpredictable ways.
