Attendees watch the opening ceremony for the centennial air show at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., June 11, 2017. The base hosted the air show and open house to celebrate the 100th year of Scott AFB. Over 50 aircraft, ranging from WWI’s Curtiss JN-4 Jenny to the currently utilized KC-135 Stratotanker, came to Scott, the fourth oldest Air Force base. Demonstrations included the Black Daggers, “Tora, Tora, Tora,” and the USAF Thunderbirds. Opened in 1917 and previously named Scott Field, the base has seen its mission evolve and expand to encompass a multitude of priorities, including aeromedical evacuation and communications. Today, Scott is home to 31 mission partners and provides around-the-clock logistics support and rapid global mobility, carried out primarily by U.S. Transportation Command and Air Mobility Command.

Members of the Black Daggers, the official U.S. Army Special Operations Command Parachute Demonstration Team, perform aerial stunts during Scott Air Force Base 2017 Air Show and Open House June 10, which celebrates the base’s 100th anniversary. The Black Daggers are capable of performing both high-altitude, low-opening and high-altitude, high-opening jumps, but the principle technique they demonstrate is the HALO, which allows them to get themselves and their equipment behind enemy lines without being detected. After exiting an aircraft at high altitudes, sometimes upwards of 25,000 feet, the jumpers fall to the Earth, reaching terminal velocity before deploying their parachutes and gliding under enemy radar.
