Second Lieutenant Taylor Baham graduated from Euro-NATO Joint Pilot Training (ENJJPT) at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas on Friday, November 7, 2014.
ENJJPT is a joint pilot training program for the NATO forces with 13 NATO nations participating in the program. The program itself was designed by NATO nations. Baham received his 55-week training from the 80th Flight Training Wing at Sheppard.
The mission of the 80th FTW is “To produce the world’s finest NATO pilots with the skills and attitude to succeed in fighter aviation.”
Baham will next attend training on the U-28 at a base in Florida. After he completes that training, he will be stationed at Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico, near the Texas Panhandle.
Attending the ceremony at which Taylor received his wings were his parents Jeff and Christy Baham and aunt and uncle Patty and Joe Febbo.
Baham is a 2009 graduate of Cook County High School.
