Retired U.S. Navy Master Chief and U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) civilian employee, Timothy Vickers, right, discusses Kiowa culture with MacDill Air Force Base (AFB) service members during an American Indian Heritage Month celebration at MacDill Air force Base AFB, Nov. 21, 2019. Vickers’ Kiowa tribal heritage stems from the line of Chief Satanta (White Bear), one of the best known, and last, of the Kiowa war chiefs. Every November USCENTCOM and MacDill AFB celebrate the achievements of American Indians and Alaska Natives, and recognize the vital role they have played in the nation’s history.
