Maj. Gen. Ralph Jodice, Commander, Air Force District of Washington, extends his appreciation to Navy Lt. Commander Steven Pace prior to participating in the Wounded Warrior Cycle Ride at Andrews Air Force Base on May 1, 2009. The wounded warriors rode from Andrews to Annapolis, Md., as a part of a four day event to raise awareness for issues that wounded warriors face. During his tenure at AFDW, General Jodice focused much of his time on support and care for wounded warriors. General Jodice spent 14 months at the helm of the Air Force District of Washington. He will take his next assignment as a joint NATO commander in Izmir, Turkey in December 2009. (US Air Force photo by Senior Airman Keyonna Fennell)
