Yup. corrected it.Still not sure why a General is wearing a BMT ribbon. I doubt he went OTS after basic. Just about has to be an Academy guy.

The BMT would not be surprising. There are and were plenty of senior officers who were enlisted before obtaining a commission and yes, those former enlisted do go through OTS or through a two or four year AFROTC program. A number of enlisted airmen are also selected for AF Academy appointments each year. All of the services do this.
