    Parachuted candy is dropped from a C-54 Skymaster in Spanish Fork, Utah May 21, 2022, in celebration of the legendary World War II pilot Col. Gail Halverson. Halverson was best known as the “Berlin Candy Bomber” or “Uncle Wiggly Wings” for dropping candy to German children during the Berlin Airlift from 1948-49. This celebration coincides with the AF 75th Anniversary. (U.S. Air Force photo by David Perry)
