Holloman celebrates 67th Air Force Birthday

Master Robert M. Graves, 49th Wing superintendent, welcomes a new airman to Holloman Air Force Base, N.M.

This year marks 67 years of the USAF leading the world in air superiority, space and cyberspace. “The future of our nation is forever bound up in the development of Air Power,” Brigadier General Billy Mitchell, United States Army Air Service.
