U.S. Air Force Col. Michael Richard, 35th Fighter Wing commander, and Mr. Yoshinori Kohiyama, Misawa City mayor, throw up the claw in tribute to the 13th Fighter Squadron's mascot, the panthers, before a high-speed taxi in an F-16 Fighting Falcon at Misawa Air Base, Japan, May 17, 2024. This gesture symbolized the strong esprit de corps and pride within the squadron. The event was part of the 'Wing Commander for a Day' program, designed to strengthen community relations and give local leaders a firsthand experience of the unit's culture and mission.
