TSgt. Michael Soucy, an intelligence analyst with the 81st Training Wing, Keesler AFB, Miss., received a Bronze Star for his actions while deployed to Balad AB, Iraq, reports Amn. David Salanitri. Assigned to a US Army team, Soucy served as a tactical controller for unmanned aerial vehicles for a joint task force.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
