Lieutenant Colonel Richard "Fuzzy" Hatch
Lt. Col. Hatch served in the U.S. Air Force from 1976 to 2006, demonstrating dedication, courage, and excellence. His 30-year career spanned multiple roles, aircraft, and missions, making a lasting impact on military aviation and national defense.
Starting as a dog handler, he transitioned to aviation, becoming a Weapons System Officer on the F-4 Phantom and later an F-4G Wild Weasel Electronic Warfare Officer, specializing in enemy air defense suppression. He also served on the EC-130E Airborne Battlefield Command and Control Center, where he played a vital role in coordinating air operations and battlefield strategy.
Now retired in Wimberley, Lt. Col. Hatch remains an inspiration to future generations. His legacy reflects the highest values of the Air Force and the warrior spirit. We salute him for his outstanding service and lifelong commitment to defending freedom.

Brilliance starts young in WISD, too -- congratulations to the "Wimberley Wonders," a group of five Jacobs Well Elementary fifth graders who beat out 17 other teams to win the Scientific Challenge category at the Destination Imagination Capital Region tournament. They were also awarded the "Renaissance Award," a special recognition given to teams exhibiting exceptional design, engineering, and performance skills. They'll compete at the state tournament in March.
