The Texas Air
National Guard’s 111th Fighter Squadron, part of the 147th Fighter Wing in Houston, has painted one of its F-16s to reflect the squadron’s 90-year history. The rudder has the look of a JN-4 Jenny. The blue fuselage recalls a color scheme from the Korean War, while the grey belly represents the jet age. An N5 A painted on the fuselage is a reminder of the unit’s P-51 days during World War II. And more, in this release.
Airmen and Guardians in the Active and Reserve component, as well as civilian employees, in “mission critical and high-risk populations” are now required to receive influenza vaccinations annually to “preserve force readiness,” according to a recent Department of the Air Force memo.
