9/12/2014 - HOMESTEAD AIR RESERVE BASE, Fla. -- Members of Homestead Air Reserve Base, Florida., gathered to celebrate the Air Force's 67th birthday at the Community Activity Center here 7 Sept.
On Sept. 18, 1947 the United States Air Force was established. In order to continue a strong Heritage and to celebrate the Air Force's 67th birthday, the Wing tracked down the youngest Airman available on Homestead ARB to cut and receive the first slice of birthday cake.

"Our Airmen have been and will continue to be the strength of the Air Force," said Senior Master Sgt. Charlie Lespier, 482nd Force Support Squadron sustainment flight chief.
