This photograph of 3-year-old Blain Lawlor won the portrait/personality photo category in the 2009 Air Force Reserve Command Media Contest. It was also named best stand-alone photo in the annual competition. The Airman and Family Readiness Center at Westover Air Reserve Base, Mass., created the pillowcase for Blain, so he could keep his dad, Master Sgt. Dan Lawlor, close during a deployment to Iraq.
