Hello everyone, and welcome to the September 17th issue of Nellis AFB / Creech AFB Desert Lightning News. Nellis AFB solemnly observed the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks with a special ceremony and flyover at the USAF Warfare Center Headquarters. “Today, we honor those who have served before us, give praise to those who currently serve with us and share our traditions to those who will take our places and serve in the future,” said Tony Rabonza, Nellis AFB fire chief. Many memories were shared of the events and aftermath of that tragic day, and we have coverage for you in this week’s edition of Desert Lightning News.
