Air Force Special Operations Command today is holding a special memorial at Hurlburt Field, Fla., for SrA. Adam Servais, the combat controller killed in Afghanistan Aug. 19. Servais, who joined the Air Force in 2002, was on his second deployment since he graduated from advanced skills training for combat control team members in September 2004. A member of the 23rd Special Tactics Squadron, Servais was working with the Afghan National Army when insurgents attacked the convoy in which he was traveling.
The Guardians of the 11th Space Warning Squadron were honored as the top U.S. Space Force unit for 2024 for their role in thwarting Iranian missile barrages last year.
