From Iwo Jima in WWII to Tucson Today: 47th Fighter Squadron flag still flies

U.S. Air Force Reserve Citizen Airman Lt. Col. Timothy Mitchell, former 47th Fighter Squadron commander, and U.S. Air Force Reserve Citizen Airman Col. Abel Ramos, 924th Fighter Squadron commander, recognize and thank Timothy Lewis and Matilde Rubio, Tohono Restoration art conservators, at the 47th FS clubhouse, Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., March 3, 2023. Rubio and Lewis respected the wishes of the unit by maintaining the weathered pieces of the flag, giving to its age, while also protecting it to prevent deterioration in the future.
