Four enlisted airmen assigned to Tyndall AFB, Fla., got the chance to fly in a F-4 Phantom fighter in appreciation of their outstanding performance. They were: MSgt. Karrie Warren, SSgt. Brett Dunning, SSgt. Stephen McGuire, and SrA.

Gen. Sid Clarke, 1st AF commander. (Tyndall report by Angela Pope)
