The 374th Airlift Wing and the Department of Defense Education Activity held a Month of the Military Child proclamation event at Yokota Air Base, Japan, April 11.

Established in 1986, MOMC pays tribute to children of military service members by recognizing their commitment, sacrifices and unconditional support.

The event featured remarks from Col. Andrew Roddan, 374th AW commander, aircraft static displays, cupcakes and speeches from the three children whose artworks were chosen to be put on this year's MOMC patches.
