Leaders set out to test themselves against new PT standards

The new Physical Training standards may have some Airmen thinking that it's impossible to pass, but several senior leaders proved Monday that the test is possible.To encourage Airmen to think positively about the new standards, they composited their scores as if they were 18 years old and still passed with flying colors.

It's all in fun

Instead of attending an Air Force Ball on Sept. 18 for the Air Force's birthday, people stationed here spent the evening at the Base Operations and Training Area, covered in camo paint and ready for a fight when the time came.However, when "alarm red" was sounded, people weren't scrambling for their gas masks or to find shelter. Instead, the alarm sent participants scrambling to their seats, so as to not upset the mess president, Col. Patrick Higby, 75th Air Base Wing commander.
