Coast Guard search and rescue forces found Capt. Ted Schultz about two hours after his F-16 crashed into the ocean around 5:40 p.m. Wednesday. Schultz, who is with the 20th Fighter Wing, Shaw AFB, S.C., was flying a training mission with another F-16 at the time of the accident. (Update: Later reports said Schultz suffered two broken legs in the high-speed ejection.)
Air Force Gen. Jacqueline D. Van Ovost—a trailblazer and one of the first 10 women to reach a four-star rank across the U.S. military—retired and passed control of U.S. Transportation Command to Air Force Gen. Randall Reed on Oct. 4, finishing an eventful tenure at TRANSCOM.
