Retired Chief Master Sgt. Kenneth Andrews meets with several Ramstein Airmen during a visit to the air traffic control tower May 24 on Ramstein. Andrews had the opportunity to speak to the controllers on duty that day and share with them his background as a 30-year retired traffic controller. Andrews entered the Air Force in 1947 and retired in 1977 after having served in several combat roles during his military career.
