Air traffic controllers keep eyes in the sky
Airman 1st Class Francis Dyball, 86th Operations Support Squadron air traffic controller apprentice, poses for a photo at Ramstein Air Base, Germany, Dec. 13, 2016. As an air traffic controller in training, Dyball splits his time between on-the-job training and bookwork to progress toward his occupational badge. For air traffic controllers, the average time to earn your badge is approximately 12 months. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Jimmie D. Pike)
