The Air Force has selected four airmen to receive the 2007 Lance P. Sijan Air Force Leadership Award. They are: Lt. Col. Laura Soule, Lackland AFB, Tex.; Capt. Stewart Parker, Pope AFB, N.C.; MSgt. William Facio, Nellis AFB, Nev.; and TSgt. Joshua King, Mountain Home AFB, Idaho.
The Air Force’s Hypersonic Attack Cruise Missile is behind schedule and may significantly overrun its expected cost, which could partially explain why the service is reviving the hypersonic AGM-183 Air-Launched Rapid-Response Weapon.
