Black History Month: A legacy of honor

Airman 1st Class Shareik Griffin, 605th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chief, and Senior Airman Kwame Ansah, 32nd Air Refueling Squadron boom operator, sit in the boom operator box of a KC-10 Extender assigned to Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey, during a Black History Month heritage air-refueling flight over the East Coast, Feb. 13, 2020. The purpose of the heritage flight was to showcase the accomplishments African-American have made in the U.S. Air Force and inspire others, not just African-Americans, to reach for what they may think is impossible.
