U.S. Air Force Col. Reed Drake, 144th Fighter Wing commander, gives the welcoming remarks at the wing's first Honorary Commander’s Induction Ceremony held at the Fresno Air National Guard Base, Feb. 12, 2017, where five local leaders were inducted as honorary commanders. The honorary commander program serves as the consummate avenue through which local leaders help support the base due to the close interaction with the commanders and their organizations.
