'Duck and cover' takes on new meaning during COVID-19

Col. Phil Heseltine, 931st Air Refueling Wing commander, dons a face mask April 8, 2020 at McConnell Air Force Base, Kan. Unless working actively in the medical squadron, most members of the 931st Air Refueling Wing at McConnell are not in the habit of daily wearing a protective face mask or covering unless it was time to don full Mission Oriented Protective Posture gear. This all changed last month with Department of Defense guidance implementing the wear of a face during the COVID-19 pandemic. (Tech. Sgt. Abigail Klein)
