AFRL Family Day
The main feature of the AFRL family day was the luncheon where family members and AFRL staff were treated to a live BATES rocket test. The Ballistic Test in an Evaluation System, which is a standard procedure to test a rocket propellant in a motor casing, burned 15-pounds of propellant in a custom made rocket engine in about five seconds. The BATES test was one in a series and was scheduled specifically for the AFRL family day so spouses and children could see what the AFRL is all about. After lunch, family members broke down into three groups to go on tours of different AFRL facilities, Aug. 5. (Air Force photo by Kenji Thuloweit)
