Retired Col. Gail Halvorsen, the famed "Candy Bomber," shakes hands with Col. Richard McComb, Joint Base Charleston commander, during the Airman Leadership School graduation, at Joint Base Charleston, S.C., June 14, 2012. Halvorsen was a pilot in the United States Air Force. He is best known for piloting C-47s and C-54s during the Berlin Airlift from 1948-1949. Halvorsen dropped candy attached to parachutes to children below. His main goal was to raise the morale of the children during the time of uncertainty. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Airman 1st Class Chacarra Walker
