Senators unanimously voted to authorize award of the Congressional Gold Medal to the nearly 1,000 members of the Tuskegee Airmen, in recognition of their singular military record during World War II. The House must also approve the measure before it becomes law. According to a press release from Sen. Larry Craig, chairman of the Veterans Affairs Committee, the Tuskegee Airmen will be the largest group ever to receive the award.
Much more Space Force enabling all aspects of the Joint force, but perhaps still crewed fighters and stealthy transports are among the forecasts outgoing Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall made in a new report to Congress.
