Airmen assigned to the 47th Flying Training Wing came out to celebrate the Air Force’s 72nd birthday, as well as the 47th year as the 47th FTW, at Laughlin’s Air Force Ball in Del Rio, Texas, Sept. 13, 2019. This year’s ball was tightly knit with history and heritage; historical uniforms, facts and photos all gave a glimpse back in time for passerby. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Benjamin N.
