U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Colin McCready, 712th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron maintainer, inspects the wing of a C-17 Globemaster III during the Liberty Eagle Readiness Exercise at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, July 15, 2022. McCready is one of many maintainers from the 512th and 436th airlift wings who worked together during a simulated deployment to a forward operating base, located on Dover AFB, July 11-15, 2022. The purpose of this exercise was to validate both wings' ability to generate, employ and sustain airpower across the world in a contested and degraded operational environment.

POW/MIA Col. Kelly F. Cook

Framed left is the University of Notre Dame yearbook photo of Kelly F. Cook, who had several pieces of literary work published while attending the Indiana college, including two pieces of poetry (upright center), which can be found in the home of his daughter Maureen, the wife of Col. Raymond A. Kozak, the 512th Airlift Wing commander at Dover Air Force Base, Del. One semester shy of graduating UND, Cook joined the Army Air Corps (photo on right) and wrote about his experiences as a bomber pilot during World War II (photo on left). Cook was later declared missing in action, and peers from the Air Force Academy compiled and published his stories in a book released in 1992. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Mercedes Crossland)
