    A military ceremony appears to be taking place in which a senior officer in a dark blue uniform is leaning down to kiss the forehead of an elderly veteran seated in a motorized wheelchair. The veteran is wearing an olive/khaki military dress uniform adorned with gold buttons, wings, and a red medal on a ribbon. The background features a projected image that includes what appears to be a flag and a military ribbon rack display.

    Air Mobility Command

    During the Airlift/Tanker Association Symposium, Gen. Maryanne Miller, Air Mobility Command commander, embraces Col. Gail Seymour "Hal" Halvorsen, who is best known as the "Berlin Candy Bomber" for dropping candy to German children during the Berlin airlift from 1948 to 1949, Oct. 27, 2018. Halvorsen is an example of innovation and leadership, offering today's mobility Airmen a reminder of the powerful impact mobility Airmen have on the lives of others. A/TA, AMC's premier professional development event, provides mobility Airmen an opportunity to learn about and discuss mobility priorities, issues, challenges, and successes. The venue creates dialogue between industry experts and Air Force and Department of Defense about ways to innovate, enhance mission effects and advance readiness headed into the future.
