Giant voice gets giant power upgrade
U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Christofer Floyd, 35th Communications Squadron transmission systems technician, shows Col. Stephen Williams, 35th Fighter Wing commander, and Chief Master Sgt. Gary Sharp, 35 FW command chief, a solar panel during a visit to a tower at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Aug. 16, 2013. Solar panels are being installed across the base on every giant voice system to ensure notifications are received in the event of a real world emergency. Approximately 60 solar panels are scheduled to be up and running by spring 2014 as a backup power source for the giant voice. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Nathan Lipscomb)
