When Wisconsin native Peter Birkrem joined the Air Force to become a pilot, he never predicted his bachelor of science in Meteorology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison would lead him to the unpredictable skies of northwest Oklahoma, the home of Vance Air Force Base and the 71st Flying Training Wing. In the last 6 months, 2nd Lt. Birkrem has seen wild weather including pipe-bursting subzero temps, triple-digit heat waves and even a tornado. Phenomena made all the more interesting because he understands the science behind it. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Cameron Schultz)
