Complete with a colorful tiger and "Tiger Meet of the Americas"
markings on the tail, LtC James "Slider" Horton, 79th Fighter Squadron
Commander, leads a 5-ship echelon formation as the jets deploy to
Colorado for the Tiger Meet of the Americas exercise. The Inaugural
Tiger Meet of the Americas was held at Buckley AFB, CO from 8-13 Aug.
2001 and brought together flying units from throughout North America
that have a Tiger or large cat as their unit symbol. The Tiger
Meet of the Americas closely mirrors the NATO / Europe Tiger Meet in
its goal of fostering camaraderie, teamwork and tactics
familiarization. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Greg L.
