The Sergeant and Glendale Mayor Jerry Weiers pause for a moment as the flag is passed.... Last December Lockheed Martin employees who helped to complete the F-35 passed an American Flag from one person to another down the line to Brig. Gen. Michael Rothstein, Luke Commander. The occasion marked the completion of the 100th F-35, which was scheduled for Luke Air Force Base. Then on Friday, March 14th, Brig. Gen Michael Rothstein asked 56 men and women who represented the many components of the 56th Fight Wing and the West Valley (home to the F-35) to pass an American flag from one person to another, as was done before in Fort Worth, Texas. The flag’s journey down the line illustrated the flag’s journey continued from the Lockheed Martin factory in Fort Worth and ended at Luke Air Force Base in Glendale, Arizona. The last person to be handed the flag, was the Lt. Col. Michael Ebner, Commander of the new F-35 Unit, the 61st Fighter Squadron. Ed Sharpe/Glendale Daily Planet no.
