Kisling NCO Academy students laugh after retired Air Force Lt. Col. Melvin Pollack, Vietnam War veteran and former prisoner of war, makes a joke while sharing his experience of spending five years and eight months in a North Vietnamese prison camp, September 12, 2016, Kapaun Air Station, Germany. Pollack encouraged students not to take their survival training for granted, telling them it will be useful in adverse times. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Airman 1st Class Joshua Magbanua)
