Spurred by the popularity of TV’s "American Idol," the Air Force’s
Air Mobility Command wants to find its best singer. Sometime in July or August, AMC commands will hold base-level competitions patterned loosely after "American Idol." Winners of the Karaoke-style "Base Icon" contests will move on to a final round at Scott Air Force Base, Ill., AMC’s headquarters, on Oct. 23. Judges will determine which of the contestants offers the best package of vocal ability, style, and showmanship. Base-level winners will get $1,000; command-level winners, $2,000. For more information, visit www.amcsvs.com or contact the service squadron at AMC bases.
