Civic leaders tour RAF Fairford
U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sergeant Shannon G. Hutto, 420th Air Base Squadron Security Forces operations superintendent, holds a UK Royal Air Force Ensign during a retreat ceremony at RAF Fairford, England, Sept. 13, 2024. Civic leaders were invited to RAF Fairford to gain insight into the 501st Combat Support Wing mission. During an immersion tour they interacted with leadership, toured a Lockheed U-2, ate at the dining facility and learned about Fairford’s heritage. Civic leaders help bridge the gap between the military and the community which supports Airmen and their families. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Jessica Avallone)
