Former Air Force Academy baseball player who was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies will not get to play professional ball anytime soon. David Chu, undersecretary of defense for personnel and policy, turned down a waiver request from 2nd Lt. Karl Bolt, reports Gene Rector of The Telegraph. Like other professional athletes, Bolt will have to serve at least two years on active duty and several more in the reserves to fulfill his commitment.
The Air Force on Jan. 6 released nearly a dozen photos of F-22 and F-35 fighters returning to Puerto Rico after supporting the raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro—the first official images of forces who participated in Operation Absolute Resolve.
