U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. James Ryan, 307th Maintenance Squadron aerospace ground equipment specialist, gives Brig. Gen. Kevin J. Merrill, 10th Air Force commander, and Col. David Martinez, 307th Bomb Wing commander, an overview of the latest B-52 Stratofortress tow bar at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana, April 7, 2026. The prototype tow bar is designed to be easier to transport and faster to put together than the current version, improving mission effectiveness. The 307th Maintenance Squadron was one of several squadrons Merrill visited during an immersion tour of the 307th Bomb Wing. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Master Sgt. Ted Daigle)
