Beamer unveils “Let’s Roll” nose art at 177th

description

Summary

Col. Mike Cosby, left, Commander, 177th Fighter Wing, New Jersey Air National Guard, watches as Lisa Beamer unveils the "Let's Roll" nose art decal on an F-16 Fighting Falcon depicting Todd Beamer's last words on Flight 93 on Sept. 11, 2001, during a ceremony at the Wing March 25, 2002. Because of the actions taken by the 40 passengers and crew aboard Flight 93 against the terrorists who had hijacked the aircraft, the attack on the U.S. Capitol was foiled. Flight 93 crashed near Shanksville, Pa., killing all on board the aircraft. The ceremony was held at the 177th Fighter Wing, which is located at Egg Harbor Township, N.J.

The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
