Twenty airmen from Los Angeles AFB, Calif., recently got to play a background role on the popular Fox TV show “24,” performing as honor guard members for a May 22 episode. The show’s crew filmed a scene on the flightline at NAS Pt. Mugu, Calif., where the Space and Missile Systems Center and 61st Air Base Group airmen mingled with other military members watching the filming.
A new report from the Government Accountability Office calls for the Pentagon’s Chief Technology Officer to have budget certification authority over the military services’ research and development accounts—a move the services say would add a burdensome and unnecessary layer of bureaucracy.
