U.S. Air Force Col. Michael Bob Starr, 7th Bomb Wing commander, and his wife, Kim, lead the first dance of the evening during the Air Force Ball Oct. 17, 2015, at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas. The ball is an Air Force-wide, annual tradition where Airmen build morale while reflecting on their history and heritage. It is also a way to celebrate Airmen and their families and thank them for everything they do when contributing to the Air Force mission to fly, fight and win.
