Normally this time of year, there is great excitement in the air as the days, hours and seconds are counted down to the start of EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh. The anticipation of the event brings a sense of giddiness, reuniting with our friends old and new, from near and far, and surrounded by the joys of aviation, which for many, inspire dreams to take flight. It’s also that rare time when we are honored to host a couple of the Tuskegee Airmen for the week, and this year we would have an even bigger reason to celebrate, as 2020 would have marked our 10th anniversary at Oshkosh. Though it’s not in the cards this year, it only gives us reason to be super excited for OSH21! Let the countdown begin to fantastic times ahead! If you would like to join us at Oshkosh next year or at another event when Volunteer Coordinator the CAF RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit resumes our tour, or maybe you’d like Melanie Burden to help out right now from the comfort of your own home, we are always seeking volunteers to be a part of our team. Please reach out at cafriseabove. org and find out more about what we do. “My experience as a volunteer with the CAF Red Tail Squadron RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit was very rewarding and it is a memory I will always cherish. I really enjoyed helping to share the history and legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen and showing how their strength of character, courage and ability lead to triumph over adversity. They truly serve as inspiration to others to overcome challenges in their own lives and ultimately accomplish their personal and professional hopes and dreams. I would highly recommend that you experience this volunteer role, as I did. Your appreciation and respect for the Tuskegee Airmen will increase tenfold and you will be enriched by the interaction with the visitors who come to see the exhibit. Their passion and love for the Tuskegee Airmen will amaze you. This story must continue to be told and what better way than through the Traveling Exhibit. I plan to participate again during the next tour season and I would recommend that the same be done by others. It is an experience I will forever hold dear I would encourage everyone to volunteer at CAF Red Tail Squadron RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit.” ~Col Quentin Smith Page 3 VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT Ken Mist My first introduction to the CAF Red Tail Squadron took place at Oshkosh in 2012 through my friend and former Squadron Leader, Bill Shepard. As a Canadian history buff, I knew a little about the story of the Tuskegee Airmen and I was immediately taken by the drive and commitment of the whole team to carry their legacy forward to modern audiences through appearances by the incredible Mustang and the inspiring RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit. In 2013 I joined the team in Dayton Ohio and began documenting their work through my photography, and one year later I was asked to become a volunteer ambassador, a position I happily accepted as I was just coming up on retirement. Since then I have attended many events across the US and Canada, assisting at the exhibit and crewing the aircraft. Thousands of miles and thousands of faces later, I am still honored to put on the team shirt and meet the public. By far, our yearly visit to EAA’s AirVenture in Oshkosh is my favorite event on the calendar. Since 2015 I have had the great joy of acting as escort for the Tuskegee Airmen who we host. Whirlwind days and nights getting them from appointment to appointment, all the time seeing how much they are loved by the adoring crowds that line up to see them, is a true labor of love. I can hardly walk by the end of the day and I have no idea where men like Charles McGee, George Hardy, Harry Stewart and the others get their seemingly limitless energy. The last few years we have been situated at KidVenture which has been especially rewarding as we help EAA guide the next generation of pilots and aviation technicians towards their future. The addition of the story of the WASP is especially exciting. It’s sad that COVID-19 has resulted in the cancellation of Oshkosh and so many other events on the calendar this year, but I await the call to get back on the road to share the Six Guiding Principles of the Tuskegee Airmen and the WASP. AIM HIGH – BELIEVE IN YOURSELF – USE YOUR BRAIN BE READY TO GO – NEVER QUIT – EXPECT TO WIN Note from the CAF RISE ABOVE team: We cannot express our gratitude strongly enough for the many years of Ken’s dedication to volunteering and providing us with fantastic photographs!!! Thank You, Ken! Page 4 DID YOU KNOW?

  • SPRING 2015 - Volume 62, Number 1 Call for Papers Violent Skies: the Air War Over Vietnam a Symposium Proposed for October 2015
    SPRING 2015 - Volume 62, Number 1 WWW.AFHISTORICALFOUNDATION.ORG Call For Papers Violent Skies: The Air War Over Vietnam A Symposium Proposed for October 2015 Four military service historical foundations—the Air Force Historical Foundation, the Army Historical Foundation, the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation, and the Naval Historical Foundation—recognize that a half century has passed since the United States became militarily engaged in Southeast Asia, and hope to sponsor a series of conferences involving scholars and veterans, aimed at exploring aspects and conse- quences of what once was known as America’s Longest War. For the first conference in the series, since all military services employed their combat aircraft capabilities in that conflict, the leaders of the four nonprofit organizations agree that the air war over Southeast Asia offers a compelling joint topic for reflective examination and discus- sion. The intent is to host a symposium on this subject in the national capital region on Thurs- day and Friday, October 15 and 16, 2015, potentially extending into Saturday, October 17. Other stakeholder organizations will be approached to join as co-sponsors of this event. The organizers of the symposium envision plenary and concurrent sessions to accommodate a wide va- riety of topics and issues. Panel participants will be allotted 20 minutes to present their research or discuss their experiences. A panel chair will be assigned to provide commentary and moderate discussion. Com- menters from academia, veterans, Vietnamese émigrés, and scholars from the region may be invited to pro- vide additional insights. Panel/Paper proposals may employ both chronological and topical approaches: Examples of chronological subjects can include: U.S.

These deployments have taken the men and women of the 187 to exercises in South Korea, Norway, Guam, Hawaii, Alaska, and many other stateside locations. In 1995, the unit deployed for a 30-day rotation to Incirlik Air Base, Turkey for Operation Provide Comfort II. The following year, the Wing deployed to Al Jaber Air Base, Kuwait for Operation Southern Watch. Then in 1997, the Wing returned to Incirlik for Operation Northern Watch. These operations were to enforce the respective northern and southern no-fly zones over Iraq. Immediately following the 11 Sep 2001 attacks, the 187 was called into action. Within hours of the attacks the 187 had jets in the air flying Combat Air Patrol missions over the largest cities in the southeastern United States. The unit sustained this effort for Operation Noble Eagle for one year following the events of 11 Sep. The 187 was again called to active duty in Jan 2003 until Apr 2003 as part of the largest military mobilization since the 1991 Gulf War.
