Command Day 2009
Second Lts. Benjamin Smith, Jason Utulo and David Castillo, 562nd Flying Training Squadron, walk away after exploring an E-3 Sentry, or AWACS, an airborne surveillance, command, control and communication aircraft, on Command Day May 5. Command Day features a series of presentations, briefings and displays that allow combat systems operator students an opportunity to talk with instructors about different airframes, operations, and the base facilities and quality-of-life issues that would accompany the assignment the students choose to take.
