First we'll see the rebuild in Japan after the devastating earthquake and tsunami. Then we'll pay tribute to one Airman who died during the 9-11 attacks, while the USAF Thunderbirds honor those who died downrange. Finally we'll look at a couple of outstanding stories done by our own Defense Media Activity journalists.
The 30-minute, weekly news show can be seen every day on The Pentagon Channel and American Forces Television Service stations around the world. The show also airs on more than 140 public cable-access stations within the United States.
