Hammons is the 22nd commander in the unit’s 71-year history. He came to the Air Guard earlier this year after serving 18 years in the active duty Air Force, including time as a Thunderbird pilot. Hammond was a distinguished graduate of the US. Air Force Academy, and has flown more than 500 combat hours over Afghanistan. More
