Change of command

Col. Bruce Bowers (left), the 446th Airlift Wing commander and Col. Mike Getchell of the 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division exchange a hand shake and the Seattle Seahawks “12th Man” flag, at the Warrior Zone, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash., Sept. 10. The Seahawks officially adopted the 446th AW as their military unit of the 2013 NFL season. The flag was transferred to the 446th AW from the 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), 2nd Infantry Division as part of a "change of command" ceremony. The 4-2 SBCT was last season's honorary unit. The players had a brief meet and greet with the Airmen and Soldiers before they departed. The flag will travel with the Citizen Airman all over the world until the 2014 season. (U.S. Air Force Reserve Photo by Master Sgt. Jake Chappelle)
