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.”
The Air Force has finished resurrecting a B-1B Lancer, completing a yearslong process to transform a bomber that had been stored for parts in the Arizona desert into the new flagship of the 7th Bomb Wing at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas.
