The Air Force has awarded an Airman’s Medal to Capt. David Burnett for his actions in June to save the lives of a mother and two small children trapped in their car after a major traffic accident. Burnett, who is commander of the 375th Military Personnel Flight at Scott AFB, Ill., received his award from Air Mobility Command boss Gen. Arthur Lichte.
The rate of building B-21 bombers would speed up if the fiscal 2026 defense budget passes. But it remains unclear how much capacity would be added, and whether the Air Force would simply build the bombers faster, or buy more.
