Preflight checks continue on the ground and in the cockpit of the brown camouflage F-15 Eagle prior to a sortie Jan. 20 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The camouflage 85th Test and Evaluation Squadron aircraft is the only one painted this way on the base. Its Jan. 20 sortie marked the last time it would fly with that paint scheme before being returned to the traditional gray. The F-15 was painted that way for its role as an aggressor aircraft in combat flight training exercises at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
