From left, U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sgt. Anthony Boone, 56th Rescue Generation Squadron superintendent, and Maj. Gen. Thomas E. Kunkel, NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control Force commander, talk about the new capabilities of the HH-60G Pave Hawk at Aviano Air Base, Italy, Aug. 18, 2023. Kunkel’s visit was significant to Aviano because he was one of the rescue pilots that saved the life of retired Gen. David L. Goldfein, when he was a lieutenant colonel and commander of the 555th Fighter Squadron, after his F-16 was shot down by a surface-to-air missile over Serbia.
