New Commander Takes Guidon at 10 VOL. 46 NO.20 MAY 19, 2006 Colorado Springs celebrates Armed Forces Week By Academy Spirit staff An estimated 1,900 people filled the Pikes Peak Center to capacity Tuesday night to enjoy a special Armed Forces Week concert by the Air Force Academy Band. “This was an unusual concert,” said Fred Correll, director of oper- ations for the band. “People who expected the same things they heard last year were in for a surprise or two.” The show featured several sub- groups of the band, including the Academy Concert Band, popular music combo Blue Steel, country group Wild Blue Country, and an unexpected appearance by the Air Force Academy Marching Band, who marched on stage and changed Photo by Eddie Kovsky formation several times while playing.

    VOL. 46 NO.25 JUNE 23, 2006 Services programs best in AF By Butch Wehry Academy Spirit staff Each year, the Air Force recognizes its best Services units and the Academy’s outdoor recreation and golf programs are winners. Mr. Chuck Alfultis, 10th Mission Support Group’s Outdoor Recreation Center director, and Mr. Ed Ainsworth, Academy Golf Club, received the trophies at the Air Force’s Services Worldwide Conference in Keystone, Colo., June 14. Outdoor recreation won the same award in 1996 and Mr. Alfultis shared some thoughts about why the Academy wins. “There are three key factors that make for an outstanding outdoor recre- ation program,” he said. “They are base location, facility and staff. First, we are located in an area with an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. Second, we are centrally located on the Academy and have the space to accom- modate the storage of our more than $2 million worth of equipment and supplies. Finally, not only do we have the right Photo by Staff Sgt. Monte J.

    Fort Worth Star-Telegram (TX) July 30, 2000 Section: NEWS Edition: FINAL Page: 1 COWBOYS vs. FLYBOYS They share a passion for competition and a desire to win By Sonny Bohanan Star-Telegram Staff Writer Hundreds of fans pressed against the chain-link fence, shouting "Emmitt, Emmitt," but the object of their attentions, No. 22, walked past without so much as turning his head. "They're so arrogant," a woman said as running back Emmitt Smith ignored fans begging for autographs at the Dallas Cowboys training camp. "They wouldn't have these million-dollar salaries if it wasn't for the fans, but they seem to forget that." Arrogance? There is an ample supply of it each summer in Wichita Falls, where the Cowboys have taken up residence for their past three preseason camps. Not only are the Cowboys among the best and highest-paid athletes in their profession, but America's team is one of the most recognizable sports franchises in the world. Long before the Cowboys descended on The Falls, the city was home to a group of professionals who rival even the Cowboys in swagger and self-assurance. Sheppard Air Force Base is a training ground for fighter pilots, the large-living aviators made famous by Tom Wolfe in his book The Right Stuff. Each year, 22-year-old college graduates walk into Sheppard's 80th Flying Training Wing for Euro-NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training. With only a handful of hours in a Cessna under their belts, they will fly their first jets within a couple of months, break the sound barrier six months later, and walk out with their Air Force wings after 13 months.
