Nobody likes running on empty, especially thousands of miles from home.

Wishing a very Happy Birthday to our brothers and sisters in the @usnavy

Whether you’re launching off a carrier or cruising the open skies, just know your favorite flying gas station is always ready when you need a sip. Cheers to 251 years of keeping the seas free! ⚓️⛽️

Finally! Something military comes into Mesa Gateway🫩. This KC-135R #58-0118 part of the 92nd ARW out of Fairchild AFB stopped by last night and I was able to get some shots of it this morning. Currently still here waiting for weather to clear.

Our 7th Annual Military Appreciation Football Game is in the books. We had a great day honoring and celebrating our military community.

A big thank you to everyone who helped make the day possible—our military guests, demonstration and flyover teams, volunteers, and the Whitworth community. We truly appreciate your time and support.

It was a privilege to recognize our student veterans at halftime and honor their service and sacrifice.

Thank you all for making it a day to remember. Go Bucs!

Yesterday, Frontier Behavioral Health and our 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline team had the opportunity to spend the day at Fairchild Air Force Base for their Out of the Darkness Walk & Safety Expo, raising awareness about suicide prevention and sharing how to get help.

We loved connecting with service members, sharing information about local behavioral health resources and 988, and having meaningful conversations about how 988 can support our military and veteran communities.

A huge thank you to Fairchild AFB for inviting us and making us feel so welcome! We’re grateful for opportunities like this that allow us to build connections, strengthen community partnerships, and make sure people know support is always available when they need it.

And we spy a familiar face on Fairchild’s Facebook page! Check out Thomas representing 988 and sharing some 988 education with attendees during the event. ✨✨ @teamfairchild @988lifeline @fbhspokane

One last picture of the patriots flying the wonderful L-39 (thanks to @garrett0075 for the correction) in formation over @teamfairchild AFB in Spokane Washington earlier this year for Skyfest

Tomorrow I’ll announce the winner of the poll along with the first picture of the winning side.

So as always, enjoy :)
