He later joined the Colorado Air National Guard, where he flew the A-7D Corsair II before commanding the skies in the F-16 Fighting Falcon for the final 17 years of his career. With multiple deployments to active combat zones in Iraq & Afghanistan. Buck decorations speak for themselves. In the immediate aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, Buck was the first fighter pilot scrambled to protect American airspace—playing a critical role in Operation Noble Eagle (ONE) and the rapid transformation of U.S. homeland defense.
