A decade and a half ago, the U.S. Air Force dropped massive 15,000-pound 'Daisy Cutter' bombs on the Tora Bora complex where Osama bin Laden was hiding in December 2001.

A terrorist is someone who has a bomb, but doesn't have an air force.

The power of an air force is terrific when there is nothing to oppose it.

When I was commissioned in the Air Force, I was committed to the institution for a career.

I spent one semester in Air Force ROTC, as I wanted to be a pilot.

More than a decade and half after 9/11, U.S. military actions in countries such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan and several other Muslim nations are governed by the Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) that was passed in the days immediately after 9/11.
