Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Senior Airman Elisabeth Stone compresses a male patient's breast tissue during a baseline screening of mammogram at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, Oct. 20, 2014. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of screening and early detection of breast cancer. According to American Cancer Society, men can also get breast cancer at any age, but with less than a 1 percent chance. Stone is assigned to the 673rd Medical Surgical Squadron as a mammography technician. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Sheila deVera)
