According to National Museum of the U.S. Air Force Director Mr. David Tillotson, the museum was thrilled to be approached by Air Force Recruiting Service about using an image of the museum’s fourth building for a virtual puzzle.
“The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force and Air Force Recruiting Services have similar missions to inspire youth toward careers in the U.S. Air Force,” said Tillotson. “So it’s a perfect fit for the world’s largest military aviation museum to be featured on the world’s largest virtual puzzle.”
Maj. Ross McKnight, Chief of the National Events Branch at AFRS, said the puzzle is a way for players to learn about the museum and opportunities for employment in the U.S Air Force.
“The mission will require highly motivated, independent, and mentally tough individuals with attention to detail in order to complete,” said McKnight. “Those are the exact same traits we need in the next generation Airmen and, just like the puzzle, we want the best qualified applicant with the right job at the right time.”
