Tyndall Airmen participated in a variety of sporting events during Sports and Wingman Day, here Monday.

The wing-wide event kicked off on the southeast end of the flight line with a formation run at 8 a.m. and was followed by Brig. Gen. Darryl Roberson, 325th Fighter Wing commander, addressing Airmen on frontline supervision, possible F-15 drawdown, wingman concepts, and safety issues during a commander's call at Hanger 2.

Airmen returned to their separate units for internal discussions and team building exercises.

Before the sporting competitions took place, the 325th Force Support Squadron food technicians served barbecue hamburgers, hotdogs, and a cooked pig to Team Tyndall at Heritage Park.
