Strengthening Bonds: The Power of Military Community Engagement

U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Cole Coffman, 9th Force Support Squadron base honor guard member, stands in his detail as a KC-135 Stratotanker performs a flyover during the Grass Valley Armed Forces Day event May 20, 2023, in Grass Valley, California. On August 31, 1949, Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson announced the creation of an Armed Forces Day to replace separate Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force Days. The single day celebration stemmed from the unification of the Armed Forces under the Department of Defense. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Ramon A. Adelan)
