Misawa Holds Patriot Day Retreat

U.S. Air Force Col. Matthew Kenkel, 35th Fighter Wing deputy commander, and Staff Sgt. Thomas Hyde, 35th Civil Engineer Squadron fire department station captain, stand at attention while two roses are placed in front of the Medal of Honor recipient’s memorial during a Patriot Day retreat ceremony at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Sept. 11, 2023. Patriot Day was officially recognized as a national holiday a year after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks to pay tribute to the police officers, firefighters and other first responders as well as the innocent civilians who lost their lives.
