Remembering our past with a new tail flash

U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Brandon Blum, 31st Maintenance Squadron aircraft structural maintenance craftsman, chips away the old tail flash in preparation of painting the new flash at Aviano Air Base, Italy, Oct. 5, 2023. Before a new tail flash can be painted, the aircraft's surface must be thoroughly sanded and cleaned to assist the adhesion process. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Raya Feltner)
