He served in the active duty Air Force for several years as a T-37, AT-38, and A-10 pilot. Following his release from active duty, General Carrelli joined the Pennsylvania Air National Guard where he served as commander of both the 111 Fighter Wing and the 171 Air Refueling Wing, and Deputy Adjutant General – Air, before assuming duties as Adjutant General. General Carrelli has deployed in numerous operations to include Desert Storm, Southern Watch, and most recently Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.
