Two more airmen from the 509th Security Forces Squadron, Whiteman AFB, Mo., received Army decorations for actions while deployed for Operation Iraqi Freedom. The Army awarded Army Commendation Medals to SrA. Simone Hurd and SrA. Bobbi Mead, both served as armed response team members covering Ali Base, Iraq, from September 2004 to March 2005 with the 407th Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron.
The Air Force on Jan. 6 released nearly a dozen photos of F-22 and F-35 fighters returning to Puerto Rico after supporting the raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro—the first official images of forces who participated in Operation Absolute Resolve.
