    Col. Garret Bilbo, 92nd Air Refueling Wing deputy commander, provides a speech during a National POW/MIA Recognition Day event at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, Sept. 20, 2024. Bilbo delivered remarks honoring all American prisoners of war, missing in action and their families. Airmen assigned to FAFB completed a 24-hour ruck march in honor of National POW/MIA Recognition Day. The march began at the Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial in Riverfront Park and ended at Fairchild AFB with participants keeping the POW/MIA flag in constant motion for 24 hours. Every year, the third Friday in September is recognized in the United States as National POW/MIA Recognition Day. The Department of Defense is steadfast in its commitment to finding, recovering, identifying and repatriating the remains of its heroes who are unaccounted for. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
