72nd MSG mission:retreat
The retreat ceremony holds many significant purposes. It marks the end of the duty day. It is an opportunity for military members to pay respect to the flag. It is a tradition that is upheld every day at military installations around the world. Usually retreat is handled by a small detail of Airmen, but Oct. 1, 80 members of the 72nd Mission Support Group held a group retreat ceremony in front of the 72nd Air Base Wing headquarters building.
