Senior Airman Corey Prater, a crew chief from the 336th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, marshals an F-15E out of its assigned spot to ensure it takes off safely, here July 20. The aircraft nose-art has an Eagle over an American Flag with the phrase: "Let's Roll." This phrase was said by Todd Beamer, a passenger on United Airlines Flight 93 which was hijacked and later crashed on Sept. 11, 2001. Beamer and fellow passengers tried to re-take the airplane from their hijackers. The F-15E Strike Eagle is a dual-role fighter designed to perform air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. The Strike Eagles launch in support of coalition forces around the clock.
