Flying a thousand

SOUTHWEST ASIA - Lt. Col. Andrew sports a special patch on his flight suit recognizing his achievement of logging his 1,000th flight hour in the U-2 April 14, 2012. Andrew, deployed from Beale Air Force Base, Calif., is the 99th Expeditionary Reconnaissance Squadron commander. The U-2, affectionately referred to as the Dragon Lady, records intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance data on missions lasting up to 12 hours at a time. For security reasons, U-2 pilots can only be identified by their first names. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. J.G. Buzanowski)
