I shot this photo at 8:50p, Saturday night on August 28th at KGLY (Clinton Regional Airport) in Clinton, MO. I'm assuming it was one of your guys practicing approaches. I thought the pilot might like a shot of himself. Thanks for the show guys!

Thanks for sending two of your B2,s to do a fly past at RAF Fairford today

Hello Whiteman AFB

I am currently going through an AFGSC STRIKEWERX Design Warfare course. In this course we find a problem big or small in the Air Force and try to fix it. The current problem we are looking into is;
“Bomber AMXS Airmen feel stuck at their base.”

We have had around 100 interviews from different bases and found similar information up and down the chain of command.
If you are interested in taking part in an interview please feel free to message me. We want to hear your GOOD and BAD stories and how you would try and tackle this issue.
Thank you very much for your time, I look forward to hearing from you.

Retired E-8 whose Masonic Youth Group is hosting a blood drive in the community. Come out and support these young ladies, please and thank you!

It was a blast seeing the B-2 refueling over my house this morning with KC-135R (HUSKR16) out of Lincoln. Thanks for the show!

Hello. Will any of our aircraft and crews be participating in the KC Airshow this year?

Team whiteman,

As many of you all know LRS and Whiteman lost a valuable team member A1C Zixuan Fang. To honor the memory of this tremendous individual, Whiteman Airman council would like to host a bonfire/ candle light vigil on Thursday June 24. The memorial will be located behind Discovery Hall and will start at 7. This is an opportunity for everyone that would like to pay their respect and celebrate the life of A1C Zixuan. The candle lighting will start at 1915. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me and we will assist in any way possible. Thank you all!

The men and women at this base along with men and women in the military across the nation are top notch and deserve our praise. Freedom is not free and we thank you. Keep up the flyovers! ,

March 15, 1980. The Soviet Union launched four submarine-based missiles from near the Kuril Islands
as part of a training exercise. Based on data from a U.S. early warning sensor, one of the launches appeared to have a trajectory aimed at the United States. This led the United States to convene officials for a threat assessment confer- ence (Comptroller General of the United States 1981). I was on duty at an LCF and the Missile Crew in the Capsule told me to get everyone down the elevator with their mattresses with no explanation, the next day, I learned they had they had the keys inserted waiting for Launch Codes; Truly a Close Call!

who was at Whiteman for Exercise Global Shield? I spent many hours in a Missile Tunnel Junction during this in the 508th Squadron! felt like WWWIII at the time!

B-2 Spirit Pennsylvania flying the pattern dirty at TNX. Thanks Jim Mumaw for the B-2!

since the k**b school district no longer requires masks and these kids go to the youth center why do kids and staff still have to wear masks?
