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.”
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.
