Blue Christmas
Lt. Col. Glen Downing, center, 81st TRW vice commander, was arrested while attempting to escape the Mathies NCO Academy Dec. 8. Staff Sgt. Chris Freimann, left, 332nd Training Squadron, and Airman 1st Class David Schlothauer, 81st SFS, apprehended Col. Downing without incident and drove him to a secure location. Bail matched the price paid for an inmate’s arrest and helped raise $4,000 to benefit Fisher House and finance the 81st SFS Christmas party. (U.S. Air Force photo by Kemberly Groue)
