U.S. Air Force retired Col. Gail S. Halvorsen, the Berlin Candy Bomber, smiles as he displays the patches given to him by Airmen assigned to the 821st Contingency Response Squadron during his visit to Travis Air Force Base, California, Jan. 31, 2020. The 99-year old war hero shared his amazing story with the Airmen and as a tribute to his legacy, he was inducted into the squadron's "Super Howl" hall of fame. The Super-Howl was initiated by the squadron as a way to recognize military veterans who visit their unit and have played an important role in the nation’s history. The squadron displays this honor on a plaque at the unit where they add the name of the inductee next to the operation he or she served in. (U.S. Air Force photo/ TSgt Liliana Moreno)
