Ramstein wins $250,000 for innovation

Airmen who submitted ideas to improve the 86th Airlift Wing during the Innovation Madness tournament showcase a $250,000 check and the Lt. Gen. William H. Tunner Trophy May 1, 2015, at Ramstein Air Base, Germany. The inaugural competition started with nine wings from around USAFE-AFAFRICA competing with each other in a tournament style match to determine which wing promotes the best innovative culture. Each wing submitted their innovative ideas along with the money and man-hours saved. Those ideas also included ways their units completed the mission in more efficient ways. In total, the nine wings submitted 477 innovations, saving the Air Force at least $28 million and 115,000 man-hours a year. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Jonathan Stefanko)
