Air Force guitar made to honor fallen Airmen
Maj. Henry Cecil (right) talks to the audience about the background of why the Air Force guitar was built as Lillian Axe lead guitarist Steve Blaze looks on April 21, 2012, at the Riverside Warehouse in Shreveport, La. Cecil and Blaze collaborated with guitar maker John Guilford to build the guitar to honor nine Airmen who were killed April 27, 2010, at the Kabul International Airport in Afghanistan. After Lillian Axe tours with the guitar, it will be raffled off with the proceeds going toward the Air Advisor Memorial. Cecil is an Air Force representative to the Federal Aviation Administration in Fort Worth, Texas. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Chris Powell)
