When an F-35 pilot ejected during a training mission, members from the the 355th AMS and the 34th WS launched life-saving HH-60W helicopters in just 26 minutes. When every second counted, our Airmen were prepared to deliver combat rescue capabilities. 👇

For #DDay82, we honor Maj. Gen. Pete Quesada & IX Fighter Command. By rigging VHF radios into lead tanks to direct strikes, they crushed the Luftwaffe and secured a 20:1 air edge on June 6, 1944. Their tactical genius saved lives & proved the need for an independent Air Force.

Victory wasn't an accident; it was engineered. From 1921-31 at Langley Field, the Air Corps Tactical School & NACA forged the airpower doctrine that won WWII. Today, HQ ACC stands on that ground, carrying forward the technical rigor of Gen. Spaatz. Innovation is our legacy.
