Current and former members of the Cordelia Fire District stand with Robert Dittmer, second from right, 102 years old, in front of a 1944 Seagrave fire engine at Travis Air Force Base, California, Dec. 6, 2022. Dittmer served as a firefighter during the August 1950 crash of a B-29 Superfortress at what was then Fairfield-Suisun Air Force Base. Brig. Gen. Robert Travis, commander of the 5th Strategic Reconnaissance Wing and the 9th Bombardment Wing, was on board and did not survive. Fairfield-Suisun Air Force Base was officially renamed Travis Air Force Base on October 20th, 1950 in honor of the base's fallen commander. (U.S. Air Force photo by Heide Couch)
