The Air Force launched a new recruiting advertising campaign, called “Do Something Amazing,” during prime time Monday night. The commercials, which tie in with USAF’s new interactive Web site, showcase Air Force people performing their jobs. The videos were taken with a hand-held camera or used existing USAF footage, unlike previous glossy Hollywood-type productions. That means, according to ad agency GSD&M of Austin, Tex., that it can produce more commercials.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
