("Leading Edge" is a series of photo stories that focus on 354th Fighter Wing leaders' immersion with wing units and highlights their contribution to the mission.)

"The purpose of this immersion is to get out and meet our Security Forces Squadron Airmen; our defenders who are holding the line right here at Eielson Air Force Base, defending the perimeter, defending the billions of dollars of airpower on the ramp, ensuring that we can execute the mission. They're not only doing that but they're keeping all of us safe on this base, our Airmen, our dependents, our civilians, contractors, as well as linking up with the local community law enforcement team to keep everybody safe. So we just want to go out and show them our appreciation for what they do, get a little insight into what exactly they are up to and it was great to meet the team." - Col. David Berkland, the 354th Fighter Wing commander
