8th Air Force retreat ceremony Aug. 10, 2011

BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. - Members of the Eighth Air Force Headquarters participate in a retreat ceremony with the 2nd Medical Group Aug.10, 2011, at Barksdale Air Force Base, La. The retreat ceremony serves a twofold purpose. It signals the end of the official duty day and serves as a ceremony for paying respect to the flag. When persons not assigned to a formation are outdoors and in uniform, on the first note of retreat, they should face the flag (if visible) or music and assume the position of parade rest.
