D-Day 70th anniversary

Honor. Valor. Bravery. It’s nearly impossible to reflect on the American armed forces’ heritage without including those words. The events that occurred on D-Day bring to life those words and present images such as men storming the beach and the sky riddled with paratroopers. The latter reminds Airmen that without the efforts made by the allied air forces, D-Day would not have been possible – efforts provided by squadrons here at Little Rock Air Force Base.

At Little Rock Air Force Base, the maintainers from component and equipment maintenance may be operating under a new name, but their support to the mobility mission continues without change.
