GOP Congressman by day, National Guard pilot at night: Kinzinger says he 'loves' border deployment

At a time when most people are wrapping up their day, Illinois Congressman Adam Kinzinger is headed to work. He is not going to the office in Washington D.C., but out past a hangar toward a plane, an RC-26 surveillance aircraft.

It’s the plane Kinzinger will fly for the next five hours (one of its primary advantages — being able to fly and work, undetected, longer than most other aircraft.)

Congressman Kinzinger is also Lt. Col. Kinzinger with the Wisconsin Air National Guard. He’s wrapping up a two-week deployment in Tucson, Arizona.
