Academy recognized for community service
Cadets create a log berm Sept. 30, 2012, to reduce flood risk on Blodgett Peak, which was burned during the Waldo Canyon Fire in June. Approximately 400 cadets helped local wildfire mitigation efforts with cleanup and erosion control in ravines near Blodgett Peak and Ormes Peak, on the western side of Colorado Springs, Colo. Cadets are scheduled to continue their work on Blodgett Peak in May 2013. (U.S. Air Force photo/John Van Winkle)
