1st Lt. Matthew Leckrone, 47th FS student pilot, poses for a photo in front of a A-10 Thunderbolt II, “Warthog” during the unit’s participation in Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2024 in Hawaii, July 31, 2024. Leckrone found it inspiring how Lieutenants Kenneth Taylor and George Welch decisive actions and mindset—quickly scrambling to defend against an enemy attack—resonate with the A-10 community’s mantra today: "Attack." For him, this history underscores the squadron’s enduring legacy of mission-focused determination, and he feels privileged to be part of such a heritage.
