Anyone know who took the picture, and why it was never copyright?

You do not need to register it to retain copyrights. That said, I will
remove the photo if the owner asserts his copyrights.

Yes, they can hold copyrights. They can hold patents and license them too.

It's pretty clear that the video was made with AF hardware. I doubt they
contract for that. If they did, it is possible that the contractor has the
rights, but I doubt it.

from www.copywrite.gov:

§ 105. Subject matter of copyright: United States Government works35

Copyright protection under this title is not available for any work of the
United States Government, but the United States Government is not
precluded
from receiving and holding copyrights transferred to it by assignment,
bequest, or otherwise.

e.g. the US government can't apply for a copywrite but may receive one. In
the case of the ejection video, hmmm?

FWIW, the ejection picture (shot from the control tower) was on the Air
Force Link website today (as part of the week in pictures):
