In this special Independence Day edition of Tehachapod, we’re honored to welcome Brigadier General Douglas P. Wickert, Commander of the 412th Test Wing at Edwards Air Force Base. Brig. Gen. Wickert leads nearly 8,000 personnel in the groundbreaking developmental test and evaluation of some of the most advanced aircraft and technologies in the world. We discuss how Edwards AFB’s mission impacts the communities of the Greater Tehachapi area, the future of flight test innovation, and what it means to serve at one of the most storied installations in aviation history. Plus, hear how Edwards continues to shape the next chapter of aerospace and national defense from right here in the High Desert.
Join us for this inspiring conversation about service, technology, and community as we celebrate freedom this Fourth of July.
