Graduating the Future of Flight: Class 25-01

U.S. Air Force pilots from Class 25-01 hold up their broken wings during their Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) graduation ceremony at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, Oct. 11, 2024. According to tradition, the first pair of wings should never be worn but broken in two, with one half kept by the pilot and the other given to a significant person, to ensure good fortune in the novice pilot's aviation career.
