2/22/2011 - The fiery sword at the center of the Nomad Memorial burned bright through the foggy morning Feb. 18 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The memorial was constructed to honor the 105 wounded personnel and 12 Airmen who lost their lives during the Khobar Towers bombing. June 25 will mark the 15th anniversary of the tragedy.
