What can adults learn from a cluttered teen bedroom? That’s what “Hidden iN Plain Sight” participants found out Feb. 13 at Kaiserslautern Middle School. Hidden iN Plain Sight is designed to help the U.S. Army Garrison Rheinland-Pfalz adult community spot the warning signs of at-risk behavior by providing a hands-on training exhibit of a typical teenager’s bedroom for parents, educators, unit leadership, law enforcement and concerned adult community members to recognize common items that may be indicative of substance abuse.

435th Air Ground Operations Wing and 435th Air Expeditionary Wing historian
Seventy-five years ago this month the U.S. Army Air Forces activated the 435th Troop Carrier Group at Bowman Field, Kentucky. When the Airmen of the 435th and four assigned troop carrier squadrons — the 75th, 76th, 77th and 78th — assembled for the first time February 25, 1943, they unknowingly began an odyssey that continues to reverberate today. The moment established today’s 435th Air Ground Operations Wing and 435th Air Expeditionary Wing. It marked the start of a journey where the Airmen of yesterday continue to inspire the Airmen of today.

I even thought it was okay to only brush your teeth when your sister mocked you for having bad breath.
