Four EA-6B Prowlers belonging to each Prowler squadron aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point conducted a "Final Four" division flight aboard the air station March 1, 2016. The "Final Four" flight is the last time the Prowler squadrons will be flying together before the official retirement of Marine Tactical Electronic Warfare Training Squadron 1 at the end of Fiscal Year 16 and the eventual transition to "MAGTF EW". MAGTF EW is a more distributed strategy where every platform contributes to the EW mission, enabling relevant tactical information to move throughout the electromagnetic spectrum and across the battlefield faster than ever before.

11. JEROME POWELL Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell speaks at the National Association for Business Economics conference in Denver on Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2019. Powell said that U.S. job growth since early last year was not as robust as thought, a hint that the Fed may be ready to keep cutting interest rates to support the economy. Downward revisions to the government's hiring data, announced in August, suggest less upward pressure on wages and inflation. (AP Photo/Thomas Peipert)
