The Air Force has created a new Web site feature that highlights the work—and sacrifices—airmen are making in the war on terror. The site, which is called “Portraits in Courage,” initially features photos and vignettes on the contributions of 15 airmen. Gen. Michael Moseley, Chief of Staff, says that airmen have “stepped up and done incredible things” throughout the service’s history and that it’s important to recognize that “today’s airmen continue that legacy and are answering the call in a big way.”
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
