"Russian incursions near Alaskan airspace and inside the air defense identification zone have occurred," a McCain campaign spokesperson told CBS News. "When they do, Governor Palin is briefed on them by the Adjutant General of the Alaska National Guard. U.S Air Force fighters have been scrambled repeatedly in response to Russian actions. After September 11, 2001, U.S. tolerance for such activities is understandably low." Captain Guy Hayes, an Alaska National Guard Public Affairs Officer, confirmed that Palin has received such briefings from Adjutant General Craig E. Campbell on Russian plane incursions. "Guardsmen do work in the section that patrols the air over Alaska," Hayes added.
