Roar of the crowd likened to that of an F-16
Lt. Col. Brad Kearney; 523rd Fighter Squadron commander and Col. Jeff McDaniel, 27th Operations Group commander at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M., listen as Hank Baskett III (second from left) explains how the sound of an F-16 flying overhead compares with the sound of the crowd at a football game. Hank and his father, retired Chief Master Sgt. Hank Baskett Jr. (second from right) toured the 523 FS and the flight simulator on Feb. 21. The retired chief's son finished his first National Football League season with the Philadelphia Eagles as a wide receiver where he received the Rookie of the Week award twice during the season.
