Reservists with the 446th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron out of McChord Field, Wash. take a moment to appreciate the Seattle Seahawks' Spirit of the 12th Man during a training mission here. Capt. Lee Wilkerson, a KC-135 Stratotanker pilot from Spokane, Wash., who injured his neck in Hawaii, helps the crew with "raising" the 12th Man flag. The concept is a way of letting the Seahawks' organization know how much the 446th Airlift Wing appreciates the support that the organization has for the military and how that support is felt with the Reservists serving all over the world.
