Cols. Glen Downing, Secretary of the Air Force Public Affairs Strategy and Assessments Division chief; Kirk Lear, 314th Airlift Wing vice commander; Kevin Jackson, U.S. Air Force Warfare Center director of operations; Greg Otey, 19th Airlift Wing commander; and John Rutkowski, Air Mobility Command Combat Operations Division chief; stand in front of the 29th Weapons Squadron flagship aircraft on the Little Rock Air Force Base, Ark., flightline Sept. 11. The colonels are five of the original cadre members who stood up the Air Force's C-130 Weapons Instructor Course in 1995. These "Living Legends" were instrumental in bringing the weapons instructor course concept to the mobility air force in 1995, changing the way C-130s, and combat airlift, fits into today’s warfighting missions.
