Judy Gentz, center, carries a memorial display honoring her son, Capt. Joel Gentz, alongside family members and pararescue teammates, April 23, at Kirtland Air Force Base, N.M. The display, known as “Joel’s Box,” was escorted from a C-130 Hercules aircraft and received by a formation of Airmen assigned to the 351st Special Warfare Training Squadron. The display commemorates Capt. Gentz’s life and sacrifice after he was killed in action during a mission in Afghanistan on June 22, 2010. The tribute will be enshrined at the Pararescue Schoolhouse’s heritage museum as a lasting symbol of courage and dedication. (U.S. Air Force photo by Mr. Allen Winston)
