Kyrgyz war heroes, Manas Airmen enjoy Veterans Day

Retired Soviet air force Capt. Valeri Kolodyzahni talks to Col. Murray Clark about his ejection from a MiG-15 over Damascus, Syria, in 1962; an event which ended a dynamic military career that included meeting the first man in space, Yuri Gagarin, while at test pilot school. The base hosted the veterans for an appreciation day visit, which included a tour, dinner and the kickoff of a new program established to assist them with some of their living expenses. Colonel Clark is the 376th Expeditionary Operations Group commander. (U.S. Air Force photo/Maj. Damien Pickart)
