Blacks in Government has awarded MSgt. Angela Kennedy the 2006 BIG Meritorious Service Award for the Air Force for setting a standard of continuous advancement and improvement. Kennedy, a 22-year Air Force veteran assigned to Eglin AFB, Fla., is nearing completion of a bachelor’s degree and plans to undertake a master’s. She also volunteers in many capacities, including mentoring 48 teenagers.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
