Sheppard Air Force Base is hosting the Guardians of Freedom Open House and Air Show. Performers include USAF Thunderbird demonstration team, Wings of Blue Parachute Demo Team, and the F-22 Raptor Demo Team, among other performers and acts showcasing the capabilities of our heroes in the air and on the ground. The Open House and Air Show is a thank you to the North Texas community for the support they provide to us as well as an opportunity for potential recruits to see military aircraft up close and speak to the men and women who fly and maintain those aircraft.
