Col. Jim Sears, 14th Flying Training Wing Commander, hands a piece of the old center runway to Rufus Ward, Columbus, Miss. native and local historian, at a Base Community Council luncheon Nov. 8 at the Columbus Club. Rufus Ward, the guest speaker at the event, normally divides his time between consulting and lecturing on cultural history and writing a weekly history column for the Columbus Commercial Dispatch.
