Lt. Gen. Stanley Clarke, Air National Guard director, flies the final U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III, P-223, Sept. 12, 2013. Clarke landed the C-17 at Joint Base Charleston, S.C. Lt. Gen. James Jackson, Air Force Reserve commander, performed the take-off from California and Gen. Paul Selva, Air Mobility Commander, took over mid-flight.
