Col. Antony Braun, 225th Air Defense Group commander, and retired Col. Jim Siscel, 25th Air Division alumni, cut the 75th anniversary cake commemorating the creation of the 25th Air Division, Oct. 25, 2023, at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The 25th Air Division was the predecessor to WADS from 1948-1990. 25th AD alumni had the opportunity to talk about their time working at the 25th Air Division, tour the WADS new mission training center, and learn about what has changed in air defense over the last few decades.
