U.S. Air Force Base Honor Guardsmen, Airman First Class Amari Black and Airman First Class Isaiah Valbuena, carry a commemorative wreath to a memorial stained-glass window at Hurlburt Field, Florida, April 24, 2024. The wreath was laid at the end of a memorial ceremony in honor of the five Air Commandos and three Marines who perished in Operation Eagle Claw in 1980 during an attempt to free American hostages in Iran. The lessons learned from the mission led to the creation of United States Special Operations Command. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Jason Huddleston)
